A sketch for another project I’m working on. A sketch of Bran among alders which grow in boggy wetlands and are a tree of the underworld gods. They bleed when cut and their wood was long ago used for warrior’s shields.

Thanks! Hehehe Carolina, seems to be a common thread among us witches. This illustration is from over a month ago, just scanned it yesterday… just in time I guess!
