I'm glad to see more black and white art, and more work by Sarah Otterstätter. Swaddled Otter...ha!
Did she do the art for the Six Trials of Larazod portion of AP#26?
If so, that was spectacular and this is spectacular. I love the ink work!
That's her!
Rather unimpressive. Her style is better suited for text borders, chapter title bars and other pseudo-engraving fare.
I like it, looks like an old woodcutting.
This is exactly what I like about her. Her work looks like something from an 18th century book

Too each their own, but personally I like her style, and can't wait for more.
She has style. Nice!

She did! You can see some of her other work here at her blog tag.

According to her official website and dA account, it seems her name is Sara with no h. See her deviantArt account.
I'm going to guess that this is for the pathfinder journal section of the book, which is supposed to represent sketches in a journal, for that purpose, her work is excellent.
Exactly!

Typo. Should be fixed shortly.

Wow, the (in character) artist must be a real hardcase. "I'd love to help put the fire out, but I'm sketching here!"
Lovely style. I hope Mr Baur does not find her or I'm out of a job...

Weird... she seems to be a fan of Hugo Simberg, Värttinä and Arto Paasilinna. I guess she either has Finnish friends, or has visited Finland?
Did she list Arvo Part?
Aw. I failed.
I thought it was great. I certainly wouldn't want everything to be so unlike the usual Paizo style, but this is a wonderful bit of spice in the mostly-realistic stew. Thumbs up, and keep on pushing that envelope!
Aw. I failed.As usually... but don't feel bad -- we know the fungus infesting your trunk and roots affects your thinking.
Now, if you would only sign this brimstone-smelling contract, I could make the fungus go away...
I may not know where they're from, but I know quality artists when I see/hear them: Sara, Arvo, non-Cheliaxian dwarves...
Awww, thanks a lot. I am really glad, that you like my artwork. There was a question about the reason, why I like artists und musicians from Finland and Estonia (in case of Arvo Pärt). I am of half Finnish descent. My mother is from Finland. And so I have relatives in Finland and have also been in holidays there. Thanks again for your commendation and your critic. I appreciate it and will keep up my work and will work on to become better. :)

Welcome to Paizoland Sara!
Finns point 1: The Finns also came up with the Molotov cocktail a weapon put to use in now on the gaming table as a low level fireball. (ok there was Greek fire but ...)
Finns point 2: I MISS the Finnish Pantheon!! I know Loviatar and Mielikki live on in FR but I'm talking about Ukko and Untamo !

Woo-hoo! I was somehow mystically right! (Why am I still surprised?)
Sara, I hope you saw that I was cheering your stuff from it's first appearance. You're a worthy addition to Pathfinder art, and this from someone who always goes for shiny colors first.
Second post Man it took me forever to find that one. I'm still looking for my first post.
A-ha! Geez, I'm committed today.

M'lord baron, surely Ukko and Untamo are nothing but minor demigods in comparison to our Beloved Asmodeus, aren't they? And Chelaxians *did* invent Alchemist's Fire (and a host of other diabol... er, fabulous innovations), which is practically a low-level fireball. :)

You were right? Er... if I recall correctly, you were wrong in your assumption that Arvo Pärt is Finnish; you did not mention anything about Sara being of Finnish descent.
Poor Mairkurion! I would gladly burn away that debilitating fungus with Hellfire... you only need to ask! ;P

So that explains it. Welcome to the Paizo boards, Sara, and keep up the good work! Those illustrations are *GREAT*! :)
She likes Arvo Pärt. Deal with it, devilkin. And memorize this helpful rule: Even when it seems Mairkurion is wrong, somehow he'll turn out to be right. Maybe it's time to listen to Credo.
Who around here mixes mash-ups?

All so very true.
At times the voices that echo in my head recall days of yore when the tomes spoke of Asmodeus as mere lesser god.
Bile blasphemy.
Where are these pretender godlings now I can not say, but our lord Asmodeus could bring fire to heavens had it been his will to do so.
One Infernal lord, One True Faith, One Eternal Empire.
Cheliax is Victorious on all fronts.

You live in denial, old treant -- false assumptions are false assumptions, no matter how you spin it. And your misguided prejudice towards Chelaxians makes you refuse from my good-natured offer to help with your awkward problem... *sigh*.

Truly, ours is the supreme nation rivaled by none in the past or the future, ruled by the wisest and the most beautiful queen to ever have sat on a throne! And in His Divine Glory, Holy Asmodeus has graced us with his Blessings and Guidance, cleansing us from the taint of pretender deities and their petty minions! Why others (such as Mairkurion) deny these facts, or our benevolent aims, I cannot comprehend; if only I could show these unenlightened primitives how fortunate and happy I am as a Chelaxian!
M'lord baron, my eyes are welling up with tears of pride and joy!
(I think it might be the time for the Dwarven Naked Beard Dance...)

Did you see those flames? The building is obviously a lost cause. Better to jot it down for posterity than waste time sweating with the bucket brigade.
It's better than the sketches one of our PCs does in our Legacy of Fire campaign. He's a wayfinder, but he's also a necromancer(phile). All his stuff is just creepy and wrong.

Glad to know I'm not the only Arvo fan out there. Most folks just look confused when I go all fanboy on him. :D

Those are Sacred Flames of Asmodeus... so the building is *definitely* a lost cause! ;)
