Really beautiful. The colouring is stunning and it conjures up some interesting half images in the background. And I will have to look out Agalloch now - music is such a great inspiration fo art and vice-versa and it is easy to understand the afinity built between them over the years.

Beautiful, although it reminds me more of Nest, instead of Agalloch.

Thanks! I must admit I haven't heard of Nest, but I'm curious if this reminds you of them. Do you have any song suggestions?

Oh, thank you! I love the intensity of the ink pencils. They bring a completely new level to watercolour paintings. Glad you like the song - that album is among my favourite winter albums of all time.

I liked the songs of Agalloch so much that I bought the album "The Mantle" today. I have to thank you for helping me discover this great band !

Wow, that's great! I just love "The Mantle", and their other albums are good, as well, though somewhat different. I found out about Agalloch through a friend who recommended them to me. I'm glad I could pass on their great music.

I heard the other songs, they are great, too . But I liked the songs of "The Mantle" best.
