"Alpha Female" by Katherine J. Grantham

SF&F Picture 1 out of 50 by Katherine J. Grantham

SciFi and Fantasy Art Alpha Female by Katherine J. Grantham


	A sorceress-shaman of the world of Tekumel holds a male Renyu ensorcelled while her alarmed Pygmy Folk companion prepares to collar him. The Renyu's mate has objections... An older ink piece, for the Tekumel fans out there. Some real anatomy problems with the woman, I know, I know, trust me, I know. The original is 17x19.5', so some fine detail has been lost. sigh

11 Nov 2003	Nadine Gruly	Loading... I honestly was so entertained by what is in the picture that I couldnt find flaws with what you have done here. The compostion and subject matter are terrific Well done and thanks for posting it here for us to see Katherine J. Grantham replies: "Thanks so much for the compliments! I'm very pleased with the composition, too. I just think the woman's legs look a bit short (although her outfit contributes to that) and her chin/jawline is a bit off. I'm glad you were entertained!"
11 Nov 2003	Frida Haapaniemi	Loading... One word: Ohlalala... (details, expressions, poses, dear Lord, this is surely stunning) Katherine J. Grantham replies: "Thank you! Boy, that was a quick first comment. You must have been browsing the "new art" postings. grin"
12 Nov 2003	Brynn T. Winters	Loading... blinks That is the most original and best executed composition piece I have seen in... tries to count on fingers. Runs out. Toes. Runs out. Gives up. Long time. Katherine J. Grantham replies: "Why, thank you! Heh, your comment reminds me of a role-playing game where I came up with my only original joke, which was told to a dwarf, to put it in context. "Why do elves have pointed ears? So they can count to 12 without taking off their boots!" insert laugh track OK, sorry to have inflicted that on you..."
10 Dec 2003	Anonymous	Loading... Interesting. i guess. the wolf is kind of strange faced though Katherine J. Grantham replies: "It's not a wolf. Or a werewolf. It's a renyu, a semi-humanoid dog like creature of generally low to middling intelligence. He looks goofy because the sorceress has cast a spell on him."
23 Mar 2004	Glorious General	Loading... Nicely done. I especially like the first Renyu's expression - like a cocker spaniel that's been bonked in the head with a big rubber mallet... Hope the priestess isn't Anka'a - you don't want to know what she'd do with that poor Renyu - or the Pigmy Folk, either Korunme Katherine J. Grantham replies: "I don't think they'd allow that on Elfwood. I heard what she did with the dead Hlyss. Eeeuuw!"
19 Aug 2004	Amanda Walker	Loading... Boo... Bad witch woman. Wolves are not slaves! I hope she gets torn to ribbons. runs to free addle-brained wolfie ahem Did I mention I'm very pro-Wolf? Anyway, this looks very similar to the OLD comic book style. Nice detail, good picture... even if I don't like the subject.
