Sure, I could dedicate several weeks to the landscapes and scenery of the world of The Wheel of Time, carefully interspersing weeks dedicated to character studies and action shots so that Fan Art Friday wouldn't lack for variety. But where would be the fun in that? Instead, I'm going to go a little crazy this week and feature all my favorite Wheel of Time landscapes and scenery (allowing for the fact that I haven't seen all the Wheel of Time art ever made and have probably forgotten or missed some really great stuff).

We've got a lot to cover, so I'll skip the flowery expositions this week and just get down to it.

(Note: A few of these break with canon in small ways, or are merely inspired by The Wheel of Time. Feel free to nitpick about canon in the comments, but please do it nicely!)

Dragonmount and Tar Valon

1. Dragonmount by John Irving (~NuttyMonk)

2. Tar Valon by Mike S. Miller and Andrea Di Vito (from the third volume in the comic book adaptation of New Spring)

3. Tar Valon by Henrik Lehtinen (I believe this is official Wheel of Time art, but I can't determine if this is from the computer game, the card game, or what...does anybody know?)

2. Three Fold Lands by Tyler Nixon (~Gypson)

3. The Threefold Land by ~TheNonSequitur
