I like this! A perfect mixture between abstract and detailed illustration. It could be an illustration for a story from the ancient Greeks. 'Odysseus and the seamonster' or something like that.

Currently working at two book projects! Hope they will both see the light by the end of 2019. This sketch is for the illustration of a poetry and travel memories collection by Italian poet Lidia Masci. Inspiring and challenging project. - The mermaid The sand smelled warm, she vanished at every caress of the wind. (Lidia Masci)
Here comes the Witch , solemn and imperturbable, she is the queen of the realm of the ferocious plants. What kind of magic is she going to put in place with the help of the little black creature at her feet?

I really love the sound of Latin language but... a translation would be useful ;)
