Description One of the illustrations I've drawn for my final thesis (aka Maturarbeit). Its title is "Die Geschichte eines Schatzfundes" (The History of a Treasure).
The character was designed solely for the thesis.

"Sorbus" is a tree called rowan in english. The end of my short story is inspired by Ovid's "Pyramus and Thisbe" where the white berries of a tree turn red. The tree in Ovid wasn't a rowan however but a mulberry tree.

Art, character (c) Shiranova

Beautiful illustration I love your shading here and how dynamic is this picture - even if the character is "just" standing!

Thank you very much! I am very happy with how the smoke came out as well. Sadly, all the different shades of grey and black aren't visible on the printed version of my thesis. uvu

I've never seen such black smoke before. o3o
Also, Pyramus and Thisbe was a story from Ovid which I enjoyed, which is rare. XD

Shiranova In reply to MisteRandom [2016-01-30 02:29:55 +0000 UTC]

I actually used a reference photo for the smoke. Huge fires in buildings cause such dark smoke. This isn't just a campfire. uvu
Pyramus and Thisbe wasn't my favorite of Ovid. But Ovid surely is one of the Roman writes I like most. <:
