Cover art for Angela Slatter’s Of Sorrow and Such, a dark fantasy novella published by Tor Books. Mistress Gideon is a witch. The locals of Edda’s Meadow, if they suspect it of her, say nary a word-Gideon has been good to them, and it’s always better to keep on her good side. Just in case. Gideon is captured, bound for torture and a fiery end. We have created a psychological portrait of the witch for communicating her mood. We imagined the witch wrapped ( hidden under) in a hooded cloak. The coat is made from a blend of leaves, shrubs, herbs, flowers, branches of trees (in reference to his work. She uses the properties of magical plants to heal people from strange and incurable ills…)
