Requiem

"Myth is the hidden part of every story, the buried part, the region that is still unexplored because there are as yet no words to enable us to get there. Myth is nourished by silence as well as by words." ~Italo Calvino

I created this illustration using Maya, Photoshop and apple cider. The inspiration derives from reading a lot of Italo Calvino's Italian Folktales, which has nurtured my indulgence in dark, "fantasy" landscapes and moods.

This is to be in a series of children's book illustrations.

Gorgeous - love the texture and light - this may be cheesy but it's on my desktop now!

Heather, you have outdone yourself once more. This is incredible, especially the attention to detail is astonishing.
