Niljora

Niljora, of 'The Stories of Niljora' ©, digital

My latest conception of the mysterious heroine of my mythos, The Stories of Niljora ©. Very excited to have recently published some excerpts from my story, with accompanying art, that has driven so much of the content of my work. While the story is much a world written out, and currently an index to my art, I look forward to bringing it out further in a number of forms. The book is currently available on my website at www.carolinprinn.com.

'From madness and nothingness came the creature Niljora'...

Progress On A New Portrait




Work in progress, Portrait of My Father (Prof. Ronald Prinn, Dir. Center for Global Change Science, M.I.T.), oil on linen.

I have started a new oil portrait. Here I am showing the underpainting, followed by the grisaille layers, and lastly the first layers of colour, keeping with a limited, earthy palette focused on the warm vs. the cool.
