SF&F Picture 20 out of 31 by Andrea T.A. Osakoda.

SciFi and Fantasy Art: Sleeping Lady in the Lake

This is inspired from a highly photographed old mill here in the USA. I got that sense of timelessness from the picture and thought 'What if?' I then thought of King Author's Lady of the Lake, and drew her sleeping there beneath the water, her hand touching Excalibur. I had to scan this in pieces, and I think I scanned it too dark.

Osakoda replies: "Yes, she is definitely sleeping (though some say it looks like she's dead). I often would wonder what lies beneath the surface of a deep lake. Sure, I could've drawn "Nessie" but opted for something more timeless and dreamy. Thank you for visiting!!"
