Art for Dragaera

Okay, so [personal profile] sholio has been having such fun rereading the Dragaera series novels! In a post of hers I mentioned some great art by a friend of the author's and that I'd try to dig it up, because her Orca is my headcanon and I find the version in the books disappointing.

The Lyorn Records contain only broken links, but confirmed the artist I was looking for is Katherine Grantham, and I was able to track it down in my own hard drive. :D




(The *happiest* Tiassa; I love him!)






(The best orca - "Orca circles, hard and lean" suits this much better than the blubbery Earth mammal.)



By the by, Katherine Grantham, nee Marschall, is who the character of Kathana e'Marish'Chala was based on. :D

Brust also named his daughter Kiera! Or Aliera? Maybe he has two daughters.

Aliera :) (He does have two daughters, but the other has a non-Dragaeran name :)

(because, conversely, I have a head for random biographical detail I pick up from just reading his blog and twitter, and therefore tend to come off as a stalker. XP)
