Artsy stuff

janestarzI finished reading "The Mists of Avalon" by Marion Zimmer Bradley. It's a very good book, and I can recommend it to everyone who is into the fantasy genre or who likes medieval/Arthurian legends.
Isaac Asimov (yes, the famous writer) said about that book: "the best retelling of the Arthurian Saga, absolutely compelling" etc.
A definite must-read. And don't dare to read it but in English!
Good. Anyway. The artsy stuff. I've been inspired by books before to draw about the characters. With the Vampire novels I was afraid because the images of Victoria (ah, the pose at the cargo yard, the leopard-accented catsuit and high hat!) and Lucita (the rose tattoo, her smart questioning eyes, and that one eyebrow arched!) and Theo and and and...might be very different from the images other people had in their minds...
In any case, Avalon inspired me again. *sigh*
When I get back to Veenendaal, I'll have enough to do. Move my desk upstairs to my room, work on projects, and work on art.
Another note: Livejournal should have a mood icon for "inspired".
