seven bells

Apropros of nothing, here's a work-in-progress concept PSD painting of the book character Sabriel I'm doing as a personal project. I haven't done any painting or figurative works for years, so I think this is coming on ok. This is only a crop of the full work, she's not got on her bell bandolier or backpack yet, and it all still needs some tweaking. You can click for a larger version if the mood takes you.

  3. This is so beautiful! I loved The Abhorsen Trilogy, what a wonderful depiction of Sabriel. Agree with Jane, can't wait to see your finished work.
