Where will their journey lead them is a fantasy artwork featuring a half elf man and his companion: a magical tiger.
This picture was a present for my friend, her characters are on the image. This image was challenging in most aspects: I fused my new background painting technique with characters. This means I adjusted the colors, lights and shadows of the half elf chracter and the tiger to the overall lightning of the 
picture. I placed them so that I can tell a story: they are on a journey, they’ve just arrived from a dark forest to a beach surrounded with mountains. The tiger has a blue glow which made the painting challenging at first, but actually it was the easiest thing to do. You can watch the step by step painting process in big if you click on the small image.
The half elf character Azzedar and the tiger is part of a comic book (The Shine of the Land), which tells how Azzedar got free of his old master and met Luna, a very sexy drow character.
