Garden of Peacocks

Again, more Art Noveau, though this one was done more like a card than anything else. I wanted to try using elements that weren't already used in either the Iron Heinrich or Mary Magdalena Susan pictures. I actually wanted more focus on her head piece, which is like a little arrangement of feathers and beads, but it was supposed to be light and airy, kind of fairy-like, and it was obscured by the dark lines around it and I didn't want to darken the lines of the headpiece lest they lose their charm. The dress had a kind of dragon theme to it, much like the Iron Heinrich picture, though at the time, I was actually thinking of dragonflies and butterflies. XDD My mind works in mysterious ways. >_>
