Haven't posted anything in a while, so I thought I'd draw a scene from A Foundation in Wisdom, which was the prequel to An Ember in the Wind that I've been working on for a while now.

Thanks! :)

I'd like to polish it up a bit; maybe replace the original book cover.

Thanks ;) It has been a while. I've been super busy at work... oddly enough, because we had some snow days this semester.

Very nice ambiance... but the foot paths should be more horizontal IMHO, if they are segments of the same path winding its way up the hill.
