The pond near the linden tree
People from the village had only heard of the Swan Prince.
Sketches and alternative composition here.
(I do like this one a lot!)
I really like this, too! And knowing how big of assholes swans are, what happens next is bound to be painful in one way or another.
I love how graceful, beautiful and yet foreboding this image is. The colours and composition also are excellent. One of my favs!
And speaking of someone who’ve dealt with geese (not swans), they’re a bunch of mean fuckers >:/
This is gorgeous
