New desktop background …
Couldn’t sleep last night so I finally got sick of tossing and turning and got up, turned on the laptop and got some work done. So today, after a short nap, I was able to catch up on a lot of things that I hadn’t got to yet. One of which was the image you see here. Tor is giving away free ebooks and I signed up to get a notice. Well, they also have two desktop images along with the book. The others have been pretty impressive but I’ve always loved the work of John Jude Palencar. Last year, I did an interview with him for SFRevu.
This image was for the cover of Charles de Lint’s Someplace To Be Flying. Charles de Lint is an author that I also enjoy and the two together, words and cover, make a wonder pairing. Now I’m going to have this wonderful artwork as my desktop background for a while. Already I find it soothing in a weird sort of way. Maybe it’s the colors, composition, or the subtle symbology. Anyway, thought I’d share.
