The Girl Who Looked Up. Shallan Davar.
Prints available! Painted with my Procreate watercolour brushes.
A digital painting showing Shallan Davar, with several scenes from her life making up a silhouette of her. Bottom: young Shallan sitting in the garden. The plants around seem gigantic and oppressive, but lifespren are glowing around her. She's hugging herself, her eyes are red. Middle: Veil, Shallan, and Radiant surrounded by drawings. Radiant is in Shardplate, the other two are in their iconic teal and white clothes. Pattern sits on Shallan's long safehand sleeve. The drawings show a chasmfiend, Veil, Dalinar, Jasnah, Urithiru, Gaz, and Kaladin. Top: Adolin and Shallan sit in Shadesmar. They are kissing, their arms around each other. Above them, a giant starspren coils in the sky, stars on its form shining brightly.

This is how I picture Dalinar Kholin in my head
Norman from the cartoon Mighty Max. He's a super big white dude in armer. He has a sword on his back and a red goatee. He looks badass and he has big muscles.

Odium offered a hollow victory—a version of him without scars.

But Dalinar understood that his pain made him who he is.

To surrender the guilt is to surrender the lessons. He chose a life of agonizing truth over a comfortable lie. He forged himself in the fires he once set.

Odium offered him the ultimate gift: An escape. He offered to take away the memories of the Rift. To erase the guilt of burning Rathalas.

Dalinar refused.

"I will take responsibility for what I have done. If I must fall, I will rise each time a better man."

"You. Cannot. Have. My. Pain."

Could you look your darkest moment in the eye and say "This is mine"?

Let's talk about Dalinar Kholin, and why his refusal in Oathbringer is the peak of fantasy redemption. 📘🔥

tivesse uma morte miserável, Kaladin sobreviveu para receber o comando dos guarda-costas reais, algo controverso para um “olhos-escuros” de baixo escalão. Agora, ele deve proteger Dalinar e o rei de qualquer perigo ― sobretudo a insólita

I think about this sometimes and of course you can pick a book you love and speaks to you, Kat's choice of representing what you want to overcome is the real answer

Maybe my answer is the fictional book Oathbringer that Dalinar wrote in the Stormlight Archive, as I'm as likely to manifest that.

omg. Kat Abughazaleh just posted that if she's elected, she'll swear in on a copy of Octavia Butler's Parable of the Sower.

If you were elected to public office (never mind whether you'd ever actually run), what book would you swear in on?

Holy shit Dalinar was the right guy to give the visions cause he is asking THE RIGHT QUESTIONS

"HEY WHERE AM I? I hit my head and I just need to know"

"Alethela"

"COOL. AWESOME. I'm in the forgotten times"

I'm reading Way of the Kings and on Dalarins first vision and I literally said out loud

"OH THE RADIANTS ARE JUST PALADINS"

Quick recap/ overview of the characters so far now:

Kaladin - oh captain my captain

Syl - love the dynamic

Dalinar - for some reason I think of Omniman but less evil

Adolin - Gaston but blonde

Shallan - love her wit and sarcasm

Sadius - more like actual omniman

Amaram - get in the bin

It is the last major preliminary from the final cover assignment of Michael Whelan’s storied career.

FOR THE GOOD OF ALL ROSHAR is now listed in our shop as an auction ending December 7 at 5pm ET. 3/3

www.michaelwhelan.com/shop/for-the...
FOR THE GOOD OF ALL ROSHAR (2024), Acrylic - 10” x 15”. Preliminary concept for WIND AND TRUTH. Original art framed in gold moulding with linen liner. Dalinar stands atop the tower of Urithiru with his hand thrust out toward a massive storm that forms a tight spiral of red clouds that unwind to blue as the spiral loosens. In the sky below the storm, clouds seem to unravel in loose waves to a warm yellow sunset. Ice forms on the top of the tower, the surface shining as it catches light. Below the roof, thin columns form a ring around the tower. The ridge intersects the tower in the foreground left.

As with previous Stormlight paintings, the cover for WIND AND TRUTH will not be offered for sale publicly. This color concept is the closest rendering to the cover available.

This is not just a rare opportunity to own art from The Stormlight Archive... 2/3
WIND AND TRUTH (2024), Dalinar stands atop the tower of Urithiru with his hand thrust out toward a massive storm that forms a tight spiral of purple and blue clouds. At the outer edge of the spiral turbulent clouds give way to pale blue sky barely visible over the tall peaks. Forks of lightning stab at the mountains that fill the vista. In the sky beyond the storm, clouds seem to unravel in loose waves, dark orange over a warm yellow sunset. Ice forms on the top of the tower, the surface shining as it catches light. On the perimeter, a low railing connects supports topped with colorful spheres that represent the orders of the Knights Radiant. Below the roof, thin classical columns form a ring around the tower. The ridge intersects the tower in the foreground left. Alien life pokes through the snowy slope with tall onion like buds, iridescent purple and green.

Early Stormlight is so funny because Kalaidin was like 19 making extremely difficult moral decisions and the storm father basically tells him to go fuck himself but Dalinar is 50 and formally homicidal sleeping with his dead brothers wife and he's like this is literally the best man I know

#048: continuar algo já em nível acima dos pares é ingrato; se o primeiro stormlight definiu a alta fantasia neste século, qualquer sequência pareceria menor. daí meu assombro ao ver o brandon sanderson não só manter o padrão como superá-lo.
