Description
No Wall is Too High
for the Sighs
of Storms
Long Awaiting
Trespass
And Stones
Long Dreaming of Flight


Yet another illustration for The Cradle of Whispers

Admittedly not my best. I've been sneaking this in between school work...quality suffers of course, and I don't know how many hours this took (took weeks...but then I only work on it a few hours every two or three days)

From Citadel Heirs, you can catch sight of the WindWalls. On the door is half of the imperial genealogy, the bottom panel is a depiction of the landscape before the Storm Season. I leave the rest of the detail for your interpretation...

If you don't know what I'm talking about...perhaps it's best you check out The Cradle of Whispers ..but of course, this illustration is a few chapters advance (as my illustrations usually are).

But it still has the same generous amount of lovely itty-bitty details everywhere. I like the effect you used on the sky, goes well with the way the WindWalls are rendered. And I like how everything has this vertical feel to it.

I go to an art school with a fashion/costume design department and I can say with complete honesty that the dresses you designed for the two foreground women are better than most I've seen here at the academy.

over-the-rainbow [2007-09-21 02:06:00 +0000 UTC]

it looks a bit more... realistic (i think that's the word...) than your other works... probably because of the background. (dunno... i'm not an expert in these things...)

details are lovely yet again~
