The End of the War

Painting realized in June 2008 with color pencils and watercolors.
No C.G.

This is the cover (front+back) for a music album of the heavy metal band "Dark Horizon". It is connected with theme of the war between Good and Evil. This is its epilogue, with an angel hugging a demon. It's not a simple happy end, i wanted to show the malinchony pervading the scene. Both the angel and the devil are not able to live in a world without the ancient war of Light and Shadow; they embrace to find refuge from their fears.
I hard worked with the band on this idea to reach this result.
