Illustration Friday - Midsummer Night

Midsummer Night - digital collage

The iron tongue of midnight hath told twelve;

Lovers, to bed; 'tis almost fairy time. 

- from A Midsummer Night's Dream

Midsummer Night - Another fantastic prompt from IllustrationFriday today. While I felt like drawing, I couldn't find the time. So instead here is a digital doodle - click the image to enlarge
