Indeed, quite right, fitting is it not?

Very surreal...I like it, especially the butterflies. Butterflies have always held a certain charm for me, and they really work with this piece.

You can't go wrong with butterflies ...
I liked how they went semi-translucent when I melted beeswax into them.

I was wondering what you used the beeswax for! And you're right, it's an interesting effect.

Reminds me a lot of Rasputina's early album covers.

Very wonky! A swan that size would be quite intimidating!

Quirky little cute image. I want a giant swan now. :[

What would you call it? (And do swans come when they're called, I wonder?)

I would name him Fakir. If only because Princess Tutu is still fresh in my mind. <3 And any animal will respond if you call them with food in your hand.
