Description
Belinda Victoria
I was approached by the authoress, Daniela Bigott��� , of the fantasy-tale "Belinda Victoria", and requested to do an image of the main character of her series which will appear on her web site, and hopefully the cover of her next book. Daniala lives in Novara, Italy. In the beginning we had some difficulty with our language barrier, however, her command of English is commendable. Over the month of May, the visible form of Belinda came to life. The scene is from the 1st chapter of her 2nd Book. Belinda goes out the villa by night with her two friends Lollo the cat and Barabba, the Molosso dog. It's very cold, she walks through her village to arrive to the Wood of The Young Oaks. She's afraid because she knows that she will die. The Background is an image of the old villa of Novara with permission of its Mayor. Below is an English translation from the 1st Book, and I can only think that if it flows this well in English, how wonderful it must be in Italian:
The return of the storks
The storks had not returned to Ibaz for many years. By now, in everyone's heart, even the remotest hope had gone and the country, always thinly populated, aged bitterly.
But one April Sunday, after a week of driving rain, a ray of sun slowly lit up the country and, under the rainbow that painted the sky softly passed through clouds like a feeble teeming of insects.
Just moments had passed and, while the radio played love songs, two voices, excited and distinct, one of a man, the other of a woman, lifted from the Wood of the Forty-Six Oaks.
'The storks are coming back!'......

Dennis you always do such wonderful and awesome work. This is outstanding my friend.
Very very beautiful, bravo
Gorgeous image, nicely composed, well done!
Buon giorno Dennis. Le scrivo qui per ringraziarla pubblicamente della preziosa collaborazione artistica che molto gentilmente ha voluto accordarci. Mi complimento con lei per il palese genio creativo e per le sue brillanti capacità tecniche. Le comunico inoltre che anche qui, a Torino, il suo lavoro è stato molto apprezzato nell'ambiente grafico e non. Personalmente, trovo l'immagine da lei creata, piena di fascino e mistero : attira a se la curiosità e l'interesse di chi l'osserva. Le giungano quindi i miei più sinceri complimenti! Salutandola cordialmente le invio le mie più grandi felicitazioni. DOROTHYDAY SANDRA - Collaboratrice Grafica di DANIELA BIGOTTA'. 11.O6.2008 - ore 01.46 - TORINO - ITALY
This is very exciting news Dennis! I think it's a good idea to take priss117's thoughts to heart. There is much stealing of art work going on. This will make a wonderful cover for the new book, may your new career flourish!
Congratulations! Excellent pic! (:
I'm the authoress of the book "Belinda Victoria". I'm here to thank Mr. Reed, great artist and fantastic man. This image has something misterious, you can see or notice that Belinda Victoria's and animals expression is very anxious. Belinda will die but I think that she will rise from her dead. In a few days this image will be put into my web site www.belindavictoria.com where Artemisia, the fairy, threw herself wholeheartedly into English learning to answer your questions. It would be very important for me translating my first book into English but I know nobody who has a through knowledge of both languages, Italian and English. I take advantage of this wonderful web site to thank all the people that wrote their comments about Dennis Reed. I wish all the best to everyone and I apologize for my bad English. DANIELA BIGOTTA'
congratulations Dennis, richly deserved Charly xxxx
