Neversink cover

Here's another book I did art for.  I did a bunch of interior art for this as well, so I might post some of it when the book comes out next year.
I was heavily inspired by the art Xiangyuan Jie did for Brother Bear, especially his painting of the glacier creeping over the mountain.  It just seemed like the right feeling for the world of the book.  Check out his art, he is amazing!

The art print you have added in this post looking quite different, i have never seen before this type of cartoons painting, that print prove that, you have great imagination, every effect is clean and clear, but i have a doubt in this painting, that you have hang tree on the sky, that's why, i can't understand it, but it's OK everything is possible in the painting.
