Inspired by a book

Happy Wednesday!
 
It's time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter challenge blog and this time we want to see something that's "Inspired by a book".

This beautiful Owl Whisperer image immediately got me thinking about the book series that started my passion for reading (especially fantasy books). And it was David Eddings The Belgariad series - I just loved those. It might be that my taste has changed a little since but I'm totally going to read those books again some day 😊


 

So this image reminds me of Polgara from those stories and if you check out the book cover of 'Polgara the Sorceress' you understand why. I own that book so I wanted to follow that colour scheme and add the tree. Everything else is coloured by alcohol markers except the sky that I did with Distress Inks.
