Medium – sketched and done digitally
Larger gives some better view for this one

Inspired by the beautiful story behind ballet “Swan-lake”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6xhKxDGWqo
.

am sharing the one i know –
.
.

While hunting, Prince Siegfried sees an amazing swan. As he takes aim to shoot, the swan turns into a beautiful woman. The woman, Odette, tells the prince that she is a princess who has come under the spell of an evil sorcerer. During the day she must be a swan and swim in a lake of tears. At night she is allowed to be a human again. The spell can only be broken if a virgin prince swears eternal infidelity to her. She tells Prince Siegfried, who happens to be a virgin prince, that if he refuses her she must remain a swan forever. Prince Siegfried falls hopelessly in love with Odette. However, through a spell by the evil sorcerer, he accidentally proposes to another woman at a party, believing that the woman is really Odette. Princess Odette feels doomed. She threatens to kill herself and throws herself into the lake. The Prince feels terribly sorry and throws himself into the lake with her. In an incredibly touching moment, the two are transformed into lovers in the afterlife ..

just wondering would it be better if i painted it in traditional mediums ??i guess am better in that :-
