:iconerebus-odora:
"The Dark is Rising" sequence by Susan Cooper isn't translated officially in Russia yet, but there are few certain projects of people, who help to bring this fairytale to our children. One of these projects is provided by one of Russia's greates publishers, and I know they started with the second book (which is called the same, as the whole sequence - "The Dark Is Rising") and I know they STILL need a cover...

So - I couldn't stay still and do nothing with this knowledge in my head.)))

CREDITS
Book: "The Dark Is Rising" by Susan Cooper
Painting details: watercolour, white tempera, A3
Music background: Bruno Pelletier "Se rêver", Kevin Parent "30 Sous Zéro".)))

Hope you enjoy.)))
Merry upcoming Christmas!)))

Lovely. But somehow it reminds me more of her book "Seawards". There is the same dualism in your painting.
