Description "Viridis Incendia" -- pen-on-paper doodle

~Still stuck in doodle phase~
Sometimes small doodles (8 1/2 x 11 inches or 21.6 x 27.9 cm) are easier to commit to. ^_^ I have gifts and collaborations I'm supposed to be working on, but can't seem to find my inspiration lately. I seem to have motivation to do mindless doodles, on the other hand. Like in "Elixir of Life", I started with the outline of the profile and let the drawing just expand from there. This is another one that would be interesting to do in color when I get around to it.

Again, no story to go with or draw inspiration from. The idea of a woman holding a butterfly in her mouth was the random image -- a starting point. I think the rest of the image just developed from words like, "trapped", "entrapment", "capture", "devour" (free association ^_^)... thus the carnivorous plants in the image, the hair, and the spider's web.

I love butterflies. I don't ever catch one for collecting or anything. This was just an idea.

i drew something kinda like this once. Except with half the detail. More negative space. I like this one though. i love detail. So much. I myself have never truly been able to accomplish it with purpose. So i admire you for having this skill.

I love the profile of her face, and the sheer immense detail! The entrapment concept is beautifully complimented by her coy expression also

I might be doing something similar to this one when I tackle "The Green Faery" theme after my current "Midnight Masquerade" (which is not going very quickly... hahaha)for the Enchanted Visions Project.
