Nylea's Forerunner - Magic: the Gathering - Theros Beyond Death

I am pleased to share with you the last of my cards that will be part of the newest Magic the Gathering set, Theros Beyond Death. Not only is this the final card to be spoiled for me, but it was also the last card I worked on of these three Theros cards. The enchanted star effect was really fun to work with, but it was the most challenging to make work in this piece. It was great working with Dawn Murin on these, and I happy to finally be able to share them with you. Here is last, but not least, the Nylea's Forerunner.

As I mentioned when I shared my Egg Token from Commander 2019, my schedule is currently too full to allow me to do the entire prep work for these. This means I only had time for the pencil drawing and not the tonal study. I had to work that out as I painted, which has resulted in some frustration with the paintings. Here is the drawing for the Nylea's Forerunner.

I will be posting more cards as they are spoiled, and in time I will share with you the process and steps that went into making these.

That is all for another exciting Monday on the blog, see you back here on Wednesday! Until then...
