This painting is an illustration for the 1994 Mythology Calendar, and appears for the month of June.
In Icelandic mythology, an enormous spider named Cariden possessed an enchanted golden sword that would grant its owner any wish that was spoken out loud. Cariden would hang the sword in her web to lure winged fairies inside where they would be trapped and devoured. The brave and bewitching fairy Kamal tricked Cariden by entrancing her with fascinating stories. When she was close to the sword, Kamal touched it and it became hers. She then killed Cariden and became queen of the fairies.

Also titled Father Time. Cover art for the book The King's Name by Jo Walton. Published by Tor Books December 2001
.Julie used her backyard for the background, by chance it snowed as she was was about to start. The look Julie aimed for in the main character is that she is plainly not happy with her circumstances or company. but resigned to them. She is battle-weary. worn down and feeling the weight of her years. but still determined to press on.

Cover art for the book Knight Errant by R. Garcia, Y Robertson. Published by Tor Books January 2003.
Llanthony is a ruined abbey in an isolated valley of the Welsh Black Mounta1ns and it looks pretty much exactly as Julie shows it here. The slightly unusual composition was dictated by a need to have a dark area at the bottom to set off the t1tle.
