Pen and Ink partial vignette, about a dream/nightmare or a positive or negative emotion.
Story illustration. I chose the Batak flood myth, where the Naga Padoha who carries the earth on it's horns gets tired of it's burden and drops the world into the sea. The god Batara Guru then sends his daughter Puti Orla Bulan to fix the situation.
"So down she came, riding on a white owl and accompanied by a dog. But she found all the nether world so covered with water that there was no ground for the soles of her feet to rest upon."
Editorial assignment; New Yorker cover.
