Shadow of the Moon

Shadow of the Moon
In the shadow of the moon,
She danced in the starlight
Whispering a haunting tune
To the night...

(blackmore's night)

First part of the serier of three paintings. All inspired by the song above. Fairy woman dances alone in the forest. I started doing these paintings three years ago. I have no idea what took it so long to get them finish. But now i'm very happy that they are completed.
