This piece is my part of art trade with :iconisbjorg:. Take a look at her part too, it's absolutely stunning! :wow: -> [link]

I must say this was challenging – yet fun – artwork to make. I started this over three times before I was happy with it: first I redrew the sketches couple of times, then started painting and changed my mind about the whole scene in the halfway, and started again from the beginning... :lol: I was also glad I had taken a lot of photos from the forest nearby last winter – they proved to be crucially useful.
So here are Isbjorg and Bishop in a distant snowy forest, probably somewhere in Rashemen. I really hope you like this piece! :heart:

:bulletblue: Take a look at the close up too:

Thank you very much for the beautiful resources! :hug:

My musical inspiration for the title came from Kamelot song:

Lost in the present, I am sure
This is the moment, say no more
You found me here today
On the coldest winter night
This moment is our right

This is a moment of belief
This is a moment made of dreams
You found me here today
On the coldest winter night
This moment is our right ”

Kamelot – On The Coldest Winter Night

Well romantic stuff turns me off in adventuring, I realize girls like it, the night forest and sky in this picture are breathtakingly beautiful. Enough light to go hunting some baleful creatures, not making out under the moon.

While romance isn't my thing, the winter night time setting of this does make for an elegant and lovely picture.
