"I have stolen princesses back from sleeping barrow kings. I burned down the town of Trebon. I have spent the night with Felurian and left with both my sanity and my life. I was expelled from the University at a younger age than most people are allowed in. I tread paths by moonlight that others fear to speak of during day. I have talked to Gods, loved women, and written songs to make the minstrels weep. You may have heard of me."

This is a painting I did of Kvothe from the book series "The kingkiller chronicles", the first book being "The Name of the Wind". I LOVE this series, its so rich and enthralling, I've laughed and welled up in tears, just a brilliant narrative, with a complex and intense character at its center.

In this painting I tried a different style, trying for a more organic, brush stroke style. I'm not 100% on it but I gave it a go so I hope you like it.
