This piece is hybrid work, scanned from a very early, out-of-print edition of the book. The original art was done in colored inks. The reproduction was quite poor, garish in fact.
I took the scan, tweaked it in Photoshop, then added some of the digital sky elements later. This is some years old, before I knew more about digital painting, and has some issues, but it’s still a pretty image!
