Entry for the contest organized by Wacom & DeviantArt.

I tried to leave cliches as far behind as possible. (Semi-nude) women, angels, devils, black, white, light & darkness; all of that has been among my first cues when thinking about the concept of 'Good vs Evil'.

That's all very nice, because it means that those are the things everyone thinks of, and they may be thrown out before paper meets pencils. The attempt to break away from these ideas and discover new, original, definitions of quite a common concept meant just that little bit more to me than just drawing the first thing that I could come up with.

If I hadn't, this would've been a hellish fallen angel vision, and the artist would have gotten no step further with skills and imagination.
Now however, she has spend time on an enjoyable piece for her gallery, learned to draw and paint details, to actually think before going to work, and most of all, challenge herself to improve.

So what's the vision on Good vs Evil here? Well... there is no versus, not when I bring my visions to life. They work on one and the same image, but they do not conflict; they create harmony. Weaving their lines they create a balance without disturbing the other. Yes, their creations might hinder, disturb, seek to destroy one another, but they themselves do not. It is their sole duty to draw what they are expert in, then see how their creations respond on one another. Simple, pure.

I had great enjoyment in making this image. It's a pencil sketch scan with brushed colorings, done with an ages old A6 knockoff NGS pentablet.
