Fantasy fauna of the Rune Fire Cycle
Lance Vangundy, author of the Rune Fire Cycle series of fantasy books commissioned me to illustrate the fantasy fauna of his world. This piece is of a highly intelligent species of horse, which are as wild as they are smart. I loved this one, mega relaxing, and channeled my inner wild stallion! Such beautiful creatures in our world, I hope I did them justice in Lance’s.
In case you missed them, below are some of the other pieces I’ve been working on for Lance over the past years.
