The doomed town was dyed crimson with blood and flame, but one defiant mage unknown was seen opposing doom that day.

 

This was a work I did in college that I was exceedingly proud of. I hand dyed paper and made my screen print design in adobe illustrator. It is part of a series I call Heraldry for Darien's Dark Days and those works were the difference between completing college and dropping out for me. I hand aligned the Silk Screen and was not perfect with it, but that also added a human element to it.
