The Apprentice

First off, I'm immensely pleased at how this came out. It looks almost exactly how I envisioned, and that never happens! The hand is a little iffy, but I got sick of fighting it. A huge thanks to for the stock of this stunning young lady! I haven't been so inspired in weeks! XD

I have a bit of a story behind this, as I do with most of my work. I imagine this young woman is apprenticed to a more or less evil sorcerer. While she is extremely promising, and learns quickly, she remains uncorrupted by the magic and it's darkness (Hence the cheery background.) But the shadows loom, and she must be careful!
