Have a Gawain watercolour sketch …

I’m finding joy in drawing again (I didn’t for a while) and I’ve been tinkering with my basic watercolour set - it’s a 12-pigment Winsor & Newton Cotman set of which I’m replacing the student-grade paints with artist-grade ones as they run out. I hope to gain some confidence with these… (Some 20 years after I bought my first watercolour set, some confidence would be nice, no?)

I’m actually thinking of doing the next two pages of the comic in watercolour, just for fun. Still pondering if that would be a good idea or a bad one.

The Darkest Hour p. 104

Morgana has made her decision: she is leaving.

<< Previous – Start

[Description: Morgana, wearing a hooded cloak, is on horseback. Her black cat Lucifer is sitting in front of her on the saddle. The abbess leads Morgana’s horse by the bridle. Followed by two nuns, they are leaving Uther’s palace behind them. In the background, Ygraine holds Morgause in her arms, sad to see her youngest daughter leave.]

Uther Pendragon is trying to get rid of Morgana by putting her into a convent, but maybe that isn’t as much of a punishment as he thinks…

<< Previous – Start

Abbess: “Have no fear, my lady. I would not judge her. Life and death are but two ends of the same staff.”

Abbess: “Even so, I think you will agree that the king’s concern is justified… Won’t you, lady Morgana?”

Morgana: “Can you help me control my power?”

Abbess: “I believe so. We seek inner strength through prayer and study. Our way of life may teach you much that is…

Uther Pendragon has called in an abbess to deal with Morgana…

<< Previous – Start

Uther: “She has the evil eye! She makes things die just by looking at them.”

Uther: “I want you to – to exorcise her. She is not to return to court until she has ceased to be a threat to those around her.”

Ygraine: “My daughter is not some kind of demon, reverend mother. She is a fay. Magic happens around her as it happens around me.”

Abbess: “But the princess’s magic is…

Magic is now setting Morgana and Morgause apart.

<< Previous – Start

Morgause: “Can’t you just stop withering things?”

Morgana: “Can you stop growing things?”

Morgause: “N-no, it just happens.”

Morgana: “Then why do you assume I have any control?”

Morgana: “Because my magic isn’t nice like yours?”

Morgause: “No! It’s just the way you always talk about using magic. I thought -“

Morgana: “Well, you thought wrongly.”

Morgana’s power has shocked Uther Pendragon. And he’s going to do something about it…

<< Previous – Start

One spring…

Morgause: “Morgana?”

Morgana: “They have arrived, I suppose.”

Morgause: “Oh Morgana, how can you be so cool about it? Uther is sending you away!”

Morgana’s anger has manifested as a destructive power. Uther is feeling decidedly queasy…

<< Previous – Start

Ygraine: “Oh, my darling little one – please don’t be upset. Everything will be fine.”

[Morgana throws Uther Pendragon a look that worries him.]

…I don’t need this Uther at all for the page I’m working on, but - yes, I do enjoy drawing a scrumptious Uther from time to time.

I’ve remembered that sketching with colour pencils is really pleasant, so I’ve gone back to it :).

The Darkest Hour p. 98

Morgana is well and truly fed up with Uther’s bullying - and Uther is about to notice…

<< Previous – Start

Morgana: “Leave my mother alone!”

[Description: As little Morgana cries out in anger, fists clenched, a blackness spreads at her feet and a potted plant loses its leaves. Behind Morgana, her sister Morgause holds a frightened black kitten with a bushy tail.]

How Not To Talk To Fairy (or Any Other) Women - a demonstration by Uther Pendragon, High King of all Britons :p.

<< Previous – Start

Ygraine: “I am meeting Marcus Cunumorus. He, I believe, cares about my people.”

Uther: “And you, I trust, care enough to extend your gift of plenty to all my domains. We will need it come harvest time.”

Ygraine: “No, I – I can’t. I won’t. I made a gift of love to Gorlois -“

Uther: “I believe a fairy wife owes her husband a blessing. And I am your husband now. Please,…
