The Priest Blesses the Room 1988


During a moment of intrigue in the royal palace of Ardath, a stately and well-wrapped individual is introduced to the room. He holds up  his winged wand and traces a circle in the air, to bless the room and its inhabitants. This is the priest Zel, who you saw in the last posting. He's got some business to do but I don't remember just what it was. This is concept art for a possible Corelli graphic novel and done in layout markers. One problem with all these markers except for the most expensive ones is that the dye colors they use fade in bright light. This piece and my other marker work has been hidden in portfolio books for (gets out calculator) at least 30 years.

Markers on Bristol illustration board, 8" x 12", 1988.

Wine Art Lovers rejoice: I have finished "Virginia Under Vine" and now it is time to convert it to PDF files and deliver it (digitally) to the printer.
