illustrated book

news are coming....
I'm making a self produced book with a friend of mine, Luigi Intorcia, he's an amazing illustrator and a great person...we will bring our works and the book itself at "Troll & Legend" 2013 at the end of march. Our work will regard faerie worlds and the messages we get from them.
In order to produce our book we are willing to make pre-sale of the book +  get donations to support our art. At payment received you'll get the book (when it will be printed, we won't start the presale until the book is finished) and if you donate something more you'll get some goodies as well (bookmarks, prints, original sketches...all the details about this will be explained as we finish the book, i guess in january along with a preview of the book).
If you are interested or if you have advises for us you can send me a note here or an email at albanese_elena@libero.it.

to see the stunning works of Luigi you can visit his own blog[link]

What do you think about this?

Big hugs

the secret tree

the whisper of nature, both wild and fertile at the same time.
The tree protects the dryad, the fae in utero and offers the sacred water.

Odin



This is a piece, representing Odin(wotan), hanging from Yggdrasil, during his final effort to take the runes. In the background there are his two wolves and hit two crows ( Huginn, "thought" and Muninn, "memory).
The personal interesting thing about this work, is a singular that came to me one night while i was working on this piece, leaving a deep meaning inside of me.
Hope you'll enjoy this.
