Autumn

Here is an illustration that I worked on for writer Richard A. Valicek.  In this illustration the direction was to come up with a classic romantic fantasy scene.  The challenge that came with working on this image was trying to come up with a scene that is both familiar and recognizable while at the same making it seem otherworldly.  I think with the bridge design almost acting as a third character in this composition it took the scene from a forest to a fantasy.
