Description

"She finally arrived..."

Thule or Tile is in classic sources a place, usually an island, in the far north, often Scandinavia or — in the Baltic Sea — Saaremaa.
Ultima Thule in medieval geographies may also denote any distant place located beyond the "borders of the known world".

Yeah, kind of a fantasy work from me, very rare!
This is completely inspired in one of my fav works from Böcklin: The Island of the Dead.
You can see also here some Yggdrasil depict. ;)

The girl is me and the island is composed with like 30 photos from my own and from http://sxc.hu.

Thanks for watching.
btw, this is supossed to be for a metal band with loong intros and outros, very atmospheric ;)

Interesting idea. Person in boat is being overwhelmed by the structure just above them. Quite eleborate, yet fitting for the desired band type mentioned in the description. Nice job.

Astonishing my dear! simply wonderful and as well powerful in my opinion. The concept is very well managed, and Yggdrasil has been extraordinarily depicted ...

I'm in love with this artwork :p
