Artist's Comments

Her passion was like fire. In the end it consumed her.

I made it with Falka of The Witcher saga fame in mind, but I guess it can be any victim of the mob's vengeance. It's a speedpaint (~4 hours of drawing), so please comment if you see any bugs.

Edit (26.10.2008) Minor fixes: moon, corset, border
I made a print out of it.

PS. Deviation nr: 101666126
A little bit of infernal support inside :D

Why don't I like the old Fire Emblem Games? Just look at my avatar. By the way, you lost the game.
:iconcrazymissdaisy:
brrr it creeps me out- in a good way. mostly when people make art of burnings, they are looking down or look sad. for once you can FEEL the pain - she´s burning alive for crying out loud! and it saddens me that we did exactly that not so many years ago

Yes the past can hurt but the way I see it you can either run from it or learn from it

An excellent indicator of the intolerance of people toward anything that doesn't fit their mold. If you're different, you're outcast...and hunted. We may not have "witch hunts" anymore, but little has changed in all of this time.

Reminds me of Joan of Arc. I like the mood of it and your style of fire. You've captured the pain and agony, nicely contrasted with crowd emotion.

Bardzo fajne, klimatyczne :) i takie ekspresyjne. O kurcze - napisałam te słowa i dopiero zauważyłam co napisał ~minak-shpinak:iconminak-shpinak: ale z tego wniosek, że coś w tym jest ;) Jedyne co mi się nie podoba to księżyc - jest bez blasku, taki płaski. Wiem, że to miał być kontrast z płomieniami, ale wydaje mi się, że nawet przy płomieniach wyglądałby jakoś inaczej. Ale generalnie super praca - dla mnie najlepsza z Twoich dotychczasowych.
:iconailinon:
This one was actually my first approach towards such extreme, expressive emotions. I'm glad people like it, I believe I'll try to add it to my repertoire. :)

Touch one and embrace the winter.

Thank you. :) I drew it because I feel the view of the witchhunts and generally "burning times" is skewed. People "romanticise" it, they make the victims look detached, somehow passive. I rarely see the actual will to live and that's what I tried to convey here. I'm glad it got such a responce :)
