This is my take on Sabriel from Garth Nix's Abhorsen trilogy. Just read the first two books a while ago and just starting on the third one now. I've enjoyed them very much so far.
Oil on illustration board.
Edit: I took the oil piece, scanned it, and did some touch-ups in photoshop. Hope its still winner. (if it was in the first place)
To be frank, I don't know the books, nor the stories... but this picture is awesome! The colors are in amazing harmony to me, and the shading is well done. Good Job!

There are a lot of themes that run through the stock gallery many people have similar ideas but they pull them off in different ways. In this series of newsletters we will look at similar ideas but different outcomes.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

create your own world, walk in it, breath in it, give it life, give it dreams and hopes, in time it will become real.
I like a lot these books too, and your vision of Sabriel is close to mine...
