Description Finally finished, 40+ hours and 4 months later it's done

Β Bit of symbolism going on as well. I do like doing pictures like this... though I'll leave it for you to figure out as its quite personal :nod

Congratulations if youve noticed the link between this pictures name and its lineart Papillion destinyblue.deviantart.com/art… They both mean butterfly in another language. Falter is an old germanic word but I like the doubble meaning of it as well, and Papillion is french but I love the sound of the word...

Done in OpenCanvas and with a wacom intuos tablet.

Questions and comments always appreciated

That light and the flowing dress are spectacular. Then that calm part of her closed eyes, leaves me wondering what is on her mind...
