Artist's Comments

The sound of soft weeping drew Alahhaois into the willow grove. He brushed aside long leaf tendrils which waved and whispered in the breeze as he followed the sound. At last he came upon the form of his sister, curled up beside an old trunk. Her face was buried in her tiny hands as she sobbed, tiny wings limp behind her.

"Azalea, what's wrong, little one?"

The tiny girl looked up, pudgy face pink from crying and shining from tears. Sniffling, she wiped her eyes with her palms and looked at Alahhaois with bright, blue eyes.

"M-mom and dad won't teach me to fly. I a-asked them yesterday and they said they might today...b-but--" She choked back a sob. "---then today, they told me to go away."

The gold eyes of her older brother softened. Kneeling down, he smiled and held out his hand.

"Don't worry, Azalea. I'll teach you. How does the oak forest sound?

She sniffled momentarily, before brightening with a smile. "Yes! Just promise you won't let me fall, okay?" She took his hand.

"Never, little sis. I'd never let you fall."


Alahhaois with his little sister, Azalea. The story seems so sweet and benign, doesn't it?

Daily Deviation

Given 2005-10-19

On the surface, this piece is magnificently detailed, done with copics in rich colors. The true story of this character adds more poignancy to this piece, showing how a neglected child finds some hope in the form of her brother. Through the works in her gallery, we learn the terrible fate of the subject of Flight Lesson by =windfalcon a highly talented artist, skilled in photography, metalworking, and traditional art.

YES! I've been waiting for this as you could tell (*points to self* Crazy pirate chick fawning over your pictures and hovering about your table like a disturbing fly) I love it! The wings are soooooooo pretty! So detailed and silky looking, but also with a sort of... stained glass look. And the background it wonderful! *favorites instantly* I think this is definatly one of your better pieces.
