Description +EDIT+

Filled in the border and adjusted the colors to specific spots because I'm anal like that. Even though you can STILL see how horrible I handled my pen in certain areas at least some of it is masked a bit with it filled in. =3

+EDIT+


The Goddess of the night sits high atop her heavenly perch far from the solid ground of the fledgling earth, moments away from beginning the long process of giving birth to the first star.

---
Originally this was intended to be the Empress tarot card because I'm wanting to draw more of those (they're totally fun) but a bit into the drawing I decided against it because my original plan was to draw something mystical and magical.

I wanted to throw a semi-Art Nouveau style into the mix because I find that style so pretty.

..
...
....Yeah I failed didn't I? Damn my horrid penmanship and wobbly pen lines! I seriously need to get my hands on a circle stencil or something.
¯\(°_0)/¯

Oh and I HATE that top right moon....it's so bad. That should stand as a testament to me to never free hand circles or semi-circles again. -__-

I'm so proud of the drawing that I have to submit it before I even dare adding color. I'm hopeful that it will actually turn out looking good with color but you never know sooooo.... wish me luck. 83

Art (c) Meh!

The line work for this is very beautiful. You put a lot of really nice details into it.

O...O

I love the colors. That is the first thing that popped into my mind was, "COLORS!" The border is a nice touch and I like it a lot. Good job.

I love it, a mix between Alphonse Mucha and Charles Vess comes to my mind when I see this

This is really wonderful! I like the Art Nouveau style in it!
I agree with you on the circle thingies.... we should practice to make them more ... circle like or something xDDD;;; with more flowing lines, or just use something to help!... I haven't made a drawing on paper for so long coz of my wobbly lines! =x=; but I'd love to do so sometime!

Keep it up, my child, you are doing great! ^_^
I'm proud of you, yer better than me now xD

Aww thanks so much ma and don't say that I'm better than you! As far as i'm concerned we're on an equal bar. =3

Ugh, the wobbly lines are the BANE of my existence! Damn my unsteady hand... I'm sure we can both work on our wobbly lines of DOOOM. A circle template is a must because pill bottle caps just don't suffice.

You should definitely try drawing by hand sometime, I'd love to see some traditional art from you ma. =3

<333333!

Haha glad ya like because it took forever to get that foot to look right. XD Dude I wish I had a tree like that too, it would be wicked coo. Though I must say I can't help but giggle at the holes because some of seem to make me think of, um, a woman's 'no no' area if you catch my drift... And considering the theme of the pic that's kind of funny. Disturbing funny.
