"While the storm raged"

It was raining hard today on the way into work. It may have been the rain that inspired me to paint this image of Lorace in a stormtossed sea. This went together surprisingly fast. No references used for the water, though a slew of fine anime films were running through my mind while I just let my hand move.

If this is a disturbing image for anyone that's ok. Lorace is sleeping, held safe in the grip of the Lady --she protected him while the storm raged over the Vestral Sea.
