SciFi and Fantasy Art Godswood by Laura Pelick Siadak

Tag As FavoriteComment

Inspired by George RR Martin's book series Songs of Fire and Ice.

This is a depiction of the godswood where many of the families who still revere the old gods go for reflection.  They say the ancient race called Children of the Forest carved faces into the trees.

All pencil done over a few days, since I cannot work in such detail for long amounts of time (bad eyes)

Closeup here.

Wow, beautiful. I love how regal the tree looks, and the how the reflection answers any question I might have about the tree. Great job on detail, and congrats!

That is some serious detail for sure! and I love the reflection.. makes you wonder whom reflects whom!
Excellent!

The technique and usage of lines is worth every appreciation. Thanks for sharing. I'll be waiting for your new works. 12

I like this, but shouldn't it be in Fan Art?
But you've captured the essence of a Weirwood, I think. Very well done.

neat idea, very original

Great! (in a way it reminds my of a darker version of The Last Unicorn... the face of the tree makes me think of Mama Fortuna...) well done!
