"And still on a winter´s night, they say..." by Christie Brandt

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 1 out of 21 by Christie Brandt


	This is what came into my head when listening to Loreena McKennit sing Alfred Noyes' Highwayman. This is who I see in my head as "Bess, the landlord's daughter," who sacrifices her life to save her lover. Must be some compensation that she gets to come back on those winter nights... This was completely computer-painted; my first attempt at a completely computer made composition.
