Castle Waiting: The Curse of Brambly Hedge, Part 3, Page 5 by Linda Medley(1996)

Castle Waiting is a fun fairy tale series with wonderful storytelling and great twists on all the old fairy tales. The first volume is especially good when it's moving fast and incorporating a lot of the classic characters.

In 2018 Linda decided to sell some original art and I was thrilled to get the complete 11-page final chapter from the opening story, The Curse of Brambly Hedge!

This is the third chapter of the Eisner-nominated story, a nicely self-contained story about when Prince Charming wakes up Sleeping Beauty and they ditch the townspeople. It's the origin of how the castle itself came to be.

VERY UNIQUE ORIGINAL ARTWORK
------------------------------
Linda's originals on this book are incredibly unique. The inks are drawn on graph paper taped at the top to a piece of drawing paper, which she used as a lightbox, sliding a pencil prelim between the two. It's unlike any other art I own.
