Artist's Comments

This is a character from the novel Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell. He was a legendary wizard that they speak of throughout the book but he only appears for maybe a page or two. The book has illustrations but no Raven King so I thought I'd make my own.

8.5x11in, watercolor and ink on bristol.

TM & (C) the author who I'm too lazy to look up at the moment.

thieves respect property. they merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it.
