Classic Fantasy Illustration: Elle of Yorn and the Dragon Kiln. Front Cover (Patreon)

Welcome back to May! Here is the front cover for Jonathan K. Williams upcoming book, Elle of Yorn and the Dragon Kiln, drawn and painted almost entirely on Twitch last month. If you missed it check out the VOD section of my channel to rewatch the development. It was a great experience and we had a lot of fun hanging out with you all (and trying to decide if gryphons preferred flamethrowers or machine guns, ....and wether Elle looked better with a handlebar mustache or a dwarf beard? The jury is still out on that one....) 

Anyway, this cover was a blast to work on. We got to play with a lot of great lighting opportunities, some lovely ruined medieval architecture, and of course, winged mythical beasts! It was a perfect storm of subject matter for me.

The back cover illustration will be posting soon! :)
