The Burning by Mercury-Lamp, literature

The Burning

I feel it in my soul, to my very bones. The fire of my kin, the greatness of the past. Tears fall heavily, with hearts like stones. A legacy left, for us to see. To those who lived, to those left. We can continue on in warped beauty. Our race, so strong, so mighty, Is doomed to face mortality But 'tis true, none could match our gaiety. Poetry and tales, songs and riddles, A rich heritage, so full of history We know what lay before, before the barren hills. Our people see the vision, know the future. The words to tell us, fate is sure A world replenished, sealed by the suture Death will not bind us forever. We, the red wolves shall rise u

Memory of the Shadow by Mercury-Lamp, literature

Memory of the Shadow

Tears roll down saddened cheeks, raw with grief. The boy, he holds her in his arms, cold and desolate. Bitterness fills his cries of agony to the thief. No words can express pain more than the empty silence that fills the air. A leader lost in disaster, a man borne through hardship. Despite maturity, the man, once a boy, carries the darkness of despair. No comfort can bring him the joy he once had. What had instilled fate such an end? A mantle of the leader, full of responsibility he is now clad. A shadow has passed, like lightning, flashed brightly and shone To inspire all who followed her, to become the light to lead. But only too soon,

Girl with the Yellow Rainboots

A childish face, solemn and sad, In a strange attire for rain she is clad A shadow obscures her face She seems pleading, As if in need of an embrace. Shoulders heavy with care Droop in great burden A child, so full of despair Brown eyes, dim with death Her lips form no words, As if the shadows have stolen her breath A phantom, leaving no tracks A ghost she must be For her skin is pale like wax She prefers to stay in the shadows, like a little recluse But she is lonely, unable to leave. The girl with the yellow rain boots

Frequently Asked Questions

May 15, 2013

I get asked many questions and it can be hard for me to answer them all, so I have compiled a list of questions which I'm often asked in the hope it is of interest to some of you :) --Making Art-- Where did you learn? I've taught myself. My Secondary (High) School art teacher told me 'cartoon are not art' and so I had no interest in perusing 'art' classes any further. At about 13 I began to draw every day, less studying, more drawing what came to mind, creating characters and worlds and getting my thoughts and feeling onto paper. I joined deviantART at 15, and the feedback and critique I've gained through sharing my art online has helped

My Bio

Working on improving my art skills by trying new things and reading art books~
Looking at college courses and such to see what formal education I can get in regards to art.

I'd like to make my Thunder Cry into a comic... But I can't seem to make a comic page that is satisfying me. May even make it into an anime type show when I find some help.

I do love roleplaying and world building.

Art trades may be considered, send me a note. :)
