Raven in Memorium

This was one heck of a digital painting done for Austin Lance. A memorial piece for the character Raven the Rogue, who occupied an Old West campaign setting, but ultimately met her end on the deck of a pirate ship. In life she had an alter ego named Sister Delores, which, I mean... that's just downright clever.

The ship came out so stunning and I seriously wish I knew why. Thank you for the opportunity to challenge myself, Austin!
