I have not been posting very often lately – so much of my spare time has been taken up with preparing images for Songs of Albion. So I thought I would show a new character. I think she turned out pretty well! (Strictly speaking there aren’t elves in Albion but… well, what are they??)
UPDATE: New poem from Tom with further hints…
We are the people of the sun and sky:
the air above, the waters silent. Deep
within the forests of this fleeting Earth
our home abides, beyond the gate where glides
the soft mysterious Moon within the day.
We are not here, but wait! Perhaps we are…
or are we just reflections in a pool
of still clear tidal water? We laugh
along the sunlit uplands of the world
and all we are and all you’ll one day be
is caught within that momentary smile.

Just a reflection on who the not-elves may be, and how at least some of them might look at us.
I really like this image, and the way these characters are developing!
Thanks Tom! The “Elf” City I’m currently working on is starting to have a character of its own too! hopefully mysterious enough!
