Description
A strange goat-like creature holds a cold flicker of light upon a worn old shield. Willow and root weep off its end as the other weeps tears of blood, serenaded by the soft whispers of cascading feathers. Hel Herself may have sent the beast, or perhaps it was once a warrior, a shield bearer; perhaps a mead soaked berserker or rowdy úlfheðnar. Whomever they once were, they are silent now...ever watching; which is perhaps, far more troublesome.~~~~~~;@ *** @:~~~~~~
Mechanical pencil and graphite on heavy weight 9x11 paper.
ORIGINAL IS FOR SALE - DM IF INTERESTED Raven design on the shield was based off 8th century CE Scandinavian art.
Later design was based off 8th-12th century CE Viking recovered relics.
