Description ... the grey rain curtain of this world turned all to silver glass, and he saw white shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise.

I thought it was time to reintroduce some colour here, after all these pencil sketches.

There is no category for Fantasy landscape!! Oh anyway, I'll put it in illustration then, fair enough as it's from a book.

oil on canvas, not sure of the size, perhaps about 70x35 cm?

PS: This original painting is now up for sale! Check out my Etsy store: [link]

Once I'll visit that place... but I doubt I stay long, though it's very beautiful!

I guess not exactly this view? They didn't leave you on a ship near the shore, right?
And I just can't find enough time for a good holiday! And all these formalities with entering the Blessed Realm, you know..

I used to live in a southern suburb of Wellington, with view across Cook Strait to the South Island. It comes pretty close.

Can you tell that I've been spending hours and hours for the last five years sitting by the sea sketching rocks and watching the waves? :-D

How's life anyway? Are you doing illustration work now? - I saw your photos having tea with Robin Hobb and snuggling with Tad Williams (was it?) -- looks good!

I'm still trying to figure out how to turn any of what I've learned into income. Quite frankly I have *no idea*
