Tag As FavoriteComment		Pen and Ink. I used the legend of Yggdrasill. The tree is a gateway linking the nine worlds of norse mythology. It's branches rise above Asgard and it's roots go beneath Hel. Odin often used the tree and traveled between these worlds riding his eight legged horse Sleipnir.

I think this may be my favorite thing in your gallery...The tree is perfect, it's all completley gripping

:-) Erika Schulz replies: "I was afraid that all the detail might be overwelming. A few people have told me it isn't though. Thanks for calling it "gripping"."

The problem with being speechless, is that you never have anything to say.

:-) Erika Schulz replies: "Awww shucks .. thanks."

Just visiting your gallery again- this is magnificent. I'd happily hang this on my wall. You bridge the gap between Beardsley and top pulp illustrator Virgil Finlay, yet forge a style of your own. Ripping stuff!
