"Arrival at High Reaches" ~ Original Tairen Art Wall Plaque

Rain Tairen Soul, in sleek, black tairen form, alights on a rocky spire in Heather Carr's original oil painting, "Arrival At High Reaches". The smoky hint of the volcanic Feyls mountain range lies in the distance. (Note: the original oil shows a black tairen with golden eyes, but the digitized rendition for the plaques will have lavender eyes, so he'll be Rain!)

A digitized rendition of the painting has been reduced and cropped to 4"x6" and mounted on a deep purple-stained solid wood plaque suitable for wall display. The complete, uncropped painting is available in giclee or original oil-on-canvas from Heather's website, www.darkparadise.org.

Daily prizes to be given to winners selected from today's commenters:
(1) autographed poster of QUEEN OF SONG AND SOULS

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE WINNERS!!!!

Question of the Day:


My artist friend, Heather Carr, has several other Tairen Art projects in the works including:
A portrait of a tairen family. Does this pose look familiar to you? It should. Rain commissioned Ellysetta's father Sol to carve a tairen matepair in ebonwood and fireoak, and Sol took the liberty of adding a pair of tairen kitlings playing at the feet of the tairen mates. I can't wait to see the color version of this.

And a portrait of Merdrahl's Fire Song. After his mate, Cahlah, died attempting to defend their unhatched young from the mysterious "wasting sickness", the tairen Merdrahl would have suffered the painful, lingering death of mate-loss, but the pride granted him peace and freed the matepair's souls through the fiery funeral rites of the Fire Song.

In the finished piece, a boiling sea of red-orange flames and smoke will wreath Merdrahl.

Heather and I hope to develop a complete series of paintings from the books, so my Question of the Day is the following:

Which scene(s) from the Tairen Soul novels would you most like to see graphically rendered?

That's a hard question! For me, it's a toss up between when Rain scorched the world (I think this scene would be visually stunning!) and the moment when Rain and Ellysetta 'meet' for the first time, when he is called out of the sky.

Wow it is a very hard question i think the revalation of lillis and lorelles magic would be neat, I also think When Elysetta true being was revieled after her mothers death. OOO the bay of Flame, The Tairen singing to the eye, Steli challenging Rain and Elysetta there are just so many i cant possibly write them all

I'd love to see Ellysetta flying out of the Faering Mists on Steli's back in her Battle garb with the sun glinting off of her blood sworn blades/rivets or Elly dressed for her wedding with all of the Crystals strung about her.

I think the one I would most enjoy would be the scene where the Eye of Truth shows the old time. Hundreds of Tairen flying over the Plains of Corunn.

Or maybe a picture of the simple Celierian wedding between Rain and Ellie.

Well, there's many, but at the biggest part, the what I assume would be shown as flashbacks for Rain's scorching of the world scenes. Those I believe should be acted with extras and the actors, then placed in later as a green/blue screen. I mean, the scorching of the world is just .....one of the most amazing things in the series and I want to see it so badly. Also, I'd like to see the scene in LORD when Rain is in the museum and makes the spirit weave of his long lost love. Awwww....I'll hug you Rain.

In addition to all of the pivotal, plot turning scenes I would like to see a tender moment between Rain and Ellysetta. ~Gia~

Wear to begin? The kitten Love gone crazy, Rain's magic in the river, the final battle of the two Fey warriors who seek out information on Elly's past, the court appearance, and that first royal dinner. ;-P Those are just my thoughts from the first book.

Rain's Rampage!!! Burn baby burn!! It may have not been a nice time, but it would have been amazing to see!

Blogger Ravynn said...

Like everyone else how to choose?! I think aside from all the other suggestions how about the moment Ellysetta felt threatened by the Eye of Truth - the image of the azrahn created black tairen hovering over her would be a stunning visual. On a more playful note how about when Steli was drying Ellysetta after their water play? Or knocking? Lastly, perhaps Sybharukai offering the kiyranis of the pride to aid in saving the kitlings or the pride defending Rain and Ellysetta from the massan.

Steli drying Ellie after the fun in the pool would be nice, but so would be any picture of Rain alone or Rain and Ellie together.Maybe when they are playing stones in the first novel?

All of them! But if I had to choose, I think I would like to see a picture of the scene in the Solarus when Ellysetta releases her magic. It's such a compelling scene and I think it would look amazing if all the characters were included, especially Rain.

That's a tough one as many others have said... Though along with pretty much everybody who'd love to see something with Rain and Ellie or when Rain scorched the world there's a couple scenes that have always stuck in my mind. I'd love to see a picture of Belliard and Ellie as she was healing his soul. I also wouldn't mind a picture of Sian and Torel (even though I know they were minor characters) back to back in their fight to the death against the Eld. Or the scene where Belliard was brought in Sel'dor chains before the Celerian court after being falsely accused of murder, in pain yet so stoic and proud... XD Can you tell I have a thing for Bel?

1. When Rain is courting Elly and flies her out to show her the seashore--I love seascapes, and her look of wonder and his enjoyment at her wonder would be a nice scene.

2. The banquet scene when Elly is unconsciously weaving and everyone is starting to feel funny.

3. The tairen song circle in the cave

4. The army of healed fey soldiers swearing fealty to Elly

5. Coming out of the pass into the fey lands-the first glimpse of the wide vista.

I would like to see Rain in Tairen form with Ellie in the saddle. With Steli and the other Tairen on each side. The scene right after they palyed chicken and are headed into the city.

I would also like to see the parade of the lutans, showcasing the 2 tairen on hind legs with Ellie standing behind them in the gown made from the lutans knives.

I would most like to see when Ellie called Rain from the sky and they first met, when Rain was giing Ellie lessons, Rain and Ellie's wedding, when Ellie healed Gaelen and when Ellie and Rain were playing with the Tairen in the pools at Fey Bahren (I know there are quite a few, but these are amongst my favourite scenes)

Many of my favorite scenes are already mentioned, so I'd like to see some of the moments from Prince Dorian's betrothal ball, i.e. when Rain and Ellie are dancing the Felah Baruk and when Adrial meets Talisa.

Hm...that's a toughie.

I'd like to see a few scenes drawn. First would be when Elysetta called Rain from the sky. Next would be when the Tairen Kits were born. I'd also like to see a picture of Elysetta and her quintents (both her orignal one and the lu'tan one she has now). I'd also like to see the Fey'Bahren pride playing in the water.

There's just so much detail in all of the books...almost all the scenes are so richly described they could easily be transformed into artwork!

Like everyone else I want to see Elysetta come into her powers, her and Rains wedding, and the baby kits after they've hatched. I'd also like to see the memorial that Rain and Elysetta created for Sariel. And from your excerpt for Queen of Song and Souls I want to see when Lillis and Kieran's power combine to stop the rocks from the mountains from crushing them and the intense look on Kierens face before he kisses Lillis and sends her to the Faering Mists.

It's a toss up between Rain scorching the world (because that would be brilliant) or the church scene, where Elysetta comes into her abilities (maybe mirror the light and dark tone in that scene) I've spent hours trying to visualize a descriptive image in my head of that scene. So far, nothing has done it justice.

Love the artwork. The Hall is a neat place and a series of 3 or 4 pictures of the chamber with the Tairen's Eye.
1/The display with the Eye on it.
2/Rain Tairen Soul approaching it with his hands out.
3/Agony of touching it.
4/Release, "answers at last."
Will you make a whole picture book out of the series of paintings With the coments describing them as you have here on the site? Or a picture series to correspond with each book?

You do realize we could go on and on forever, right, Cheryl? xD Hooboy.

+ Scorching of the World.

+ The painting in the Celieria City Museum of Rain and Sariel, and then one of what actually happened.

+ Rain meeting Ellysetta, his Tairen form plunging towards the crowd.

+ The Sun and Moon of Celieria.

+ The Lake of Glass where the spirit weave of Sariel still exists. Two picture possibility; one of the lake itself, with some shimmer of the spirit weaves, and another of Sariel's resting place.

+ "Cha'kor, ti'Feyreisa!" Two versions: Her first quintet, before Adriel and Rowan leave, and the next with her additions from the Fading Lands, both pictures with them hovering around her, blades drawn.

+ "Joy of Flight, Unbound" Rainier Eras with Ellie upon his back, flying in the sky.

+ "Stones" The children, with Rain and Ellie, playing stones in the park.

+ "...moira felah ti'Feyreisa..." Ellie healing Bel's soul.

+ "The Impossible" The healing of Gaelen vel Serranis, with Rainier Eras beneath the twenty-five fold weaves in the background.

+ "The Truth, Unveiled" Ellysetta's awakening in the Church of Light, power crackling around her.

+ The Faering Mists

+ Teleon / The Garreval / Orest, as well as Celieria City, with Rain in flight over it, two hundred Fey marching beneath, and Marissya with Dax; Dharsa is another good option.

+ Marissya walking with Amaranth blooming in her wake.

+ "Dahl'reisen" the infamous Gaelen, as a Dahl'reisen.

+ "Breaking Free" Rain and Ellie emerging from the mists into the fading lands.

+ "Bright and Shining" Ellie healing the rest of the Rasa, with the Shei'dalins and her bloodsworn behind her, lending their strength.

+ "Moira felah ti'Feyreisa!" Ellie's "introduction" to Dharsa, wearing her bloodsworn dress.

+ "Challenge!" Steli vs. Rain and Ellie.

+ "Time for Play"; both the scene with the Tairen in the pool, as well as Steli licking Ellie off.

+ "Knocking" xD; Steli 'knocking'.

+ "Pride Songs for Shei'kess"

+ Ellie's darkness; the tairen, being roused from the Eye's visions, with her challenging it, the Azrahn Tairen looming behind her.

+ "As Fierce as any Warrior" Ellie riding Steli out of the mists.

+ Shan and Elfeya.

+ "Contemplation" Rain, looking at the Fey King Armor.

+ "To War...and life." Rain in the Fey King Armor.

+ "You'll kill them all." One of Ellie's nightmares, with the High Mage looming.

+ "Sweet Kitlings, Live~" Ellie rocking the eggs, as well as when she and Rain are in the Well of Souls.

+ "Tairen! Defend the Pride!" Steli and the pride diving towards the Massan as they try to truthspeak Ellie and Rain.

+ "Melliandra's Memory" The small girl having her hair brushed by Shia, with the other women around her in the small piece of paradise in Boura Fell.

+ "The Request" Melliandra asking Shan to kill the High Mage.

+ "Mage's Triumph" Vadim holding Tyrkomel.

+ "Fire and Forests" Lauriana and Sol, picking up Ellie on the side of the road.

Oh God. So many more. Hell, I'd say these should be made...into an anime [Geneon does good work, they recreated Hellsing to truly follow the manga version], as Hollywood has screwed up so many of the books turned into Movies. [Eragon? YUCK. What. The. Hell.] I have too much love for these books to have them be turned into something like that.

Pretty much in addition to what everyone else has said, I'd like to see a realistic rendering (okay, as realistic as fiction can be) of the portraits in the museum that so captured Elly's heart before she met Rain.

I think it would be neat to see the scene of Rain when he last does the Spirit weave of Sariel. I think the emotions on his face would be hard to capture, but if it could be done, it would be really powerful.

oh my goodness! tanya just about got every powerful moment captured!! i completely agree with her:)) all of those sound wonderful. but.. (lets do something darker!) maybe the high mage with elfeya and shan still imprisoned? im not sure exactly what should be captured there. their hate for the high mage or their devotion to one another? or even elfeya healing the high mage after he binds a tairen soul to a fey? i just think we should have not only lovey-dovey happy images (which are my favorite!!) but some dark scary images as well. again tanya you did an amazing job capturing all those moments! i loved reading EVERY SINGLE one of them! :)

You do pick some hard questions Cheryl! Hmmm ... since you did say scene(s), here are my favourites:

1) When Rain first claims and meets Ellie

2)When Elysetta's magic bursts forth at the Cathedral after Lauriana's death.

3)When Elysetta restores Gaelen's soul

4)When Rain and Ellie get married

5)When Ellie is welcomed in Dharsa

I think that will do (for now :D).

when Rain and ellysetta first meet or her atop Rain or just any scene with her and rain.

Wow, there are several good ideas in the previous comments.

I have to agree with Endrance De Beaumont, I'd like to see a picture of Sian and Torel. Although, I think I'd like a more dramatic moment-of-death picture, where Sian has just fallen, Torel is in his last moments, and Gaelen is off to the side, too late to save either of them. I thought that was the saddest moment in the whole series.

Another option might be the moment in the Solarus where Selianne has just saved Lauriana and is dissolving, and Lauriana is about to smash the scepter. It might be titled something like "Redemption." Not that there is any forgiveness in my heart for Selianne or Lauriana, but it could make a good picture.

My husband wants to see Shan being tortured (o_O). He says that time with the guy with the hammer who is shattering Shan's bones. I think he misunderstood what I meant when I said "graphically." But if I was going to add to that, I think this would make a powerful picture, with a translucent overlay in the background of two women: Elfeya weeping, and Elysetta screaming in pain as they both share the moment with him in their own way.

And on a lighter note, how about that scene when Ellie's quintent is opening wedding presents, and Rain says "You bring pride to this Fey."

For a portrait, I think a picture of Gaelan and Kieran would be nice. Showing their dislike, but also a clear family resemblance.

Amanda-- Hehe, thanks. :] Anyone up for round two? -Cracks knuckles.- [And yes, I realize this doesn't gain me another entry. Purely for fun. I'll try and add more dark stuff in.]

+ "Ver Reisa Ku'Chae." [Your Soul Calls Out] A split image, or two separate ones. One of Rain with his head suddenly jerked up, his gaze off towards Celieria, and one with Ellie cornered by Den.

+ "I Would Move Mountains For You" Kieran holding up the mountainside, with Lillis clutching his shoulders. A testament to the Fey's devotion for females...but also the possibilities between the two characters.

+ "Got Your Back" The two brave Fey [whose names escape me right now] that were sent off to Northern Celieria to gather information about Ellie's past. Standing back to back against their attack, looking a bit like pincushions, but not going down without a fight.

+ The Fey Training Academy.

+ "Defiance for Honour" Tajik vs. Gaelen.

+ "Marks Revealed" Gaelen spinning Azrahn towards Ellie, the mage-mark a dark smudge over her heart.

+ "Flight!" Rain, bursting from the palace, away from Ellie. As well as one later on, when he's pushing against the vicious storm.

+ "Pursuit!" Bel chasing the street urchin that stabbed Ellie, along with the rest of her quintet.

+ "Bound, but not Beaten" Bel in shackles before the Council of Lords.

+ "Gateway" The gate into the well of souls, with the offering being devoured.

+ "Torment" Shan being disembowled, with the healer hovering over him, Elfeya watching.

+ "Ve sha Desriel!" [I am Death!] A split image, one of Shan lunging forwards towards Vadim, while on the other half, Ellie's thrown her head back with Rain's hand in view, and she's shouting the same thing while braced against her father.

+ "Surprise" The scene where the twins unveil their own power.

+ "Kem'jeto Ruvel" [My Brother Returns] Gaelen on his knees, in the Fading Lands, with Marissya nearby, huge smile upon her face.

+ "Blinding" After making it through the mists, this shot should be of a shining Ellie leaning against Rainier Eras's front foreleg. His wings should hover over her, fangs bared.

+ "We Are Fierce" Ellie pinning Tajik with her Tairen-Eyes, Tajik himself half-crouched, but looking undeniably shocked.

+ "Feraz Beauty" The trade between the Witch-Queen's messenger and Vadim.

+ "The Massan" A portrait of all five pairs that make up the Massan.

+ "Seizure" Ellie in the middle of one of her bad seizures, back arched off the ground.

+ "The Great Sun Rises In Your Eyes" A tender moment between Shan and Elfeya. They're both lying on the table in Boura Fell, still pressed against one another [to make sure there's no exposure xP].

+ "Out of the Woodwork" The Elden Army pouring from the gates made by the dropped Chemar.

+ "Restore" Rain in the Veil, the spring in Orest, still in Tairen form, with arrows dotting through his wings.

+ "Stolen" Vadim holding up a babe from the torn stomach of one of his pets. Perhaps Shia?

+ "To the Mists!" Kieran's group being pursued by the Darrokken.

+ "Reinforcements" Bel and Gaelen leaping from Rain's back, landing beside Tajik...'grinning like fiends'.

+ "Fire Song" A scene from the fire song, of course. Perhaps even Ellie peeking over a ledge?

+ "Mother's Love" Callah, fighting with the invisible soul-taker, protecting her eggs.

+ "Tairen's Scorching Flame" The arrival of all eight Tairen, not just Ellie on Steli's back.

+ "Nei, Little Sausage" one of the more deadly and yet humorous moments. Kiel holding Den down, Fay'cha hovering dangerously close, with Ellie looking on.

...and...yeah. I haven't a clue what else right now. xD; Round Two was fun.
