Art post: Faerie Queen (FAEbruary art challenge)

[radiantfracture]

Weird weather. In the morning, a storm in the north, mist in the east, a patch of blue sky overhead, crows roosting in the trees. Today I feel sore, but lifted-too-many-weights sore, not incapacitated-by-needless-hiking-accident sore. After writing I lay down for a while and the storm that had first caught Salt Spring Island at the end of our Zoom writing session today passed over, rough but quick.

cmcmck suggested a Titania to go with the Oberon, and that seemed necessary, but now that she's here I get the sense that this queen wants to do her own thing.

Parts of this are more finished than others, but I have to say I really love this face.

Thank you!

I don't usually praise myself in case it causes some kind of catastrophe, but I feel really good about the modelling in the face (it's only < 1" high)

ok enough feeling good

other bits are pretty rough and I might clean them up some, but I wanted to post her
