Environmental Illustration: Gont, from The Earthsea Cycle

Gont, one of the islands in the Earthsea books by Ursula K. LeGuin, is home to one of the series' main characters, Ged. The world of Earthsea is described in a way that very effectively evokes some lovely imagery of the land and sea, and I like capturing that imagery. I tried to capture Gont and its surrounding islands with the map of Earthsea in mind.
