Enjoyed Serenity/Firefly series and decided to showcase the special and sacrificial relationship of brother and sister, Simon and River Tam. The Chinese character means "love".

I can't believe this piece has only received two favorites and zero comments! This is an absolutely stunning painting achieved with an unusual mix of mediums (that I have seen so far). The depth of colors, the contrasts, tones and the vibrancy of them really make this a stand-out piece. It's so fitting that the colors used fit with the Serenity theme of warm oranges and reds. The likeness of the actors are spot-on and the composition is lovely! A definite must :+fav: for me!

Thanks again for your nice words and appreciation. This is my latest painting (completed in Feb 2007). Loved Serenity and really should have actively watched Firefly when it was on Fox. At the time I was really into Farscape. Little did we know both shows would go "bust" soon after. Oh well. I hope to do a tribute painting with the whole cast eventually. You have to admit it's a "handsome" crew. The Simon/River relationship was one of the strongest themes in the show for me so I thought I would start there. Maher is definitely a "hottie" :)....

I never saw or heard of Serenity even while it was still on tv. I found out about it last year from my bother-in-law who had the DVD set and he lent it to me. That's how I got hooked. I thought the crew was wonderfully cast. They're all funny and played off each other very well. I loved the Simon/River relationship and how a brother would protect his sister like that and get so consumed he'd forget all about himself and falling in love. I can't wait to see more of your paintings!
