Description "If, when you open your eyes, the day is sunny and bright, so shall your future be.

But if the day is full of storms, so shall be your life."

I let this one draw itself and it turned into this gothic little illustration. Inspired principally by Wuthering Heights, though I detect a bit of Dark Shadows as well. It's all good -- I'm a big fan of both.

I really ought to do more illustrations. I'd forgotten how fun they are.

I'd love to spend the night in that cathedral... (is it a cathedral?)

It could be, if you prefer it that way. I had more of a gothic old house in mind, but I like it to be open to the viewer's interpretation.

Those big windows were what made me think it. And the cemetery, somewhat.

This is awesome! Is it done in charcoal?

Thanks! It's just pencil and a bit of pen. I'm really hard on my pencils
