Just...wow. I like the way that green moon (sun?) fills the background and accents details- face, the teasel in her hand and the wing

Thank you so much for the lovely comments! The circle in the background is just a random orb really, it's a design element I like and I included it in all of my gemstone pieces.

Thank you so much! The series isn't really ended, I'll still be doing some alternate birthstones, along with some other stones. I'd love to use your stock again for Onyx, by the way!

Awesome! I'd love to see some more of the semi-precious stones, Lapiz, tiger's eye, hematite.. I'm a sucker for the "less than precious" pretties... lol

And heck yeah! Onyx is such an interesting stone.. a lot of neat properties.. That will be awesome!
