Illustration Friday- Polar


I found this weeks subject a really tough one! I have been working on an illustration for the Snow Queen by Hans Christian Anderson but it won't be done in time, so I came up with this, a Dandelion clock frozen in a lump of ice. There is something magical about dandelion heads like a frozen explosion, and I liked the idea of an Image of captured time, which came from thinking about wooly Mammoths frozen in the Siberian tundra.
