      i just took a scan through the track names and theres a lot of references as well:
      moon sphere of the dancing court refers to a very popular place in waterdeep where people come to dance near a magical construct of the same name
      kelthas reffers to an obscure necromancer bandit
      and dragonspear is a dungeon
      im pretty sure dinomace is a refference to the saurials or dragonbait but im not aquainted enough with either to be sure

Traditional paints seem to have a particular quality to them on paper or canvas that seems to hold its value for the viewer (or for me at least) much longer than newer arts done digitally. It really has a different quality to me than digital does.
