Inspired by Dean: Glass Water

I don't see a lot of people trying to mimick the flowing landscape styles of Roger Dean, so this week, I decided to take a stab at it. While I have a small handful of drawings trying to get the feel of his perspective, his rock techniques, and the like, I found one particular pen work (about 6 by 3 inches in size) to do justice to him.

So I decided to paint it.
