The malicious Näcken has enthralled a poor girl, and is about to drown her in his brook. Inspired a bit by the song Balladen om lilla Elsa by Dia Psalma.

I can feel the sadness. I wish I could draw so much emotion into my work.

Heh, I just knew you had to be a Dia Psalma fan as well!
Great work, as always. Would love to see a Bäckahäst in your gallery as well...

:-) Johan Aronson replies: "Hehe, Psalma can be really good, especially I like their more folk influensed work (no shit, hehe).
Anyways, hopefully I'll draw a bäckahäst one day, just have to learn how to draw horses... In the mean time, check out Maja Andersson's gallery for some truly amazing bäckahästar!"

I like the detail you put in her outfit. The delicate emotion that comes through this piece in inspiring.
