Description
For A representation of her inner self and her symbols and companions. Hope you like it, Nia.
I wonder if anyone can actually spot the dragonfly here?
As recommended by , I am experimenting with a slightly different approach to CGing. I've been further exploring the tutorial I mentioned. I enjoyed it very much - and mind you, I don't think I'll use airbrush of dodge tool EVER again

the dragonfly was actually one of the first things I saw, but they are one of my symbols/animals so I immediately had the "oooo... I want a piece of jewelry like that" reaction. the shading, texturing, and technical aspects of the image are very well developed. the entire composition is very aesthetically pleasing. kudos!

Thank you! The picture was originally a present for someone who counted dragonfly as one of her symbols too, so I'm glad it appeals to you, too.

Exquisite! Most pretty indeed. I like the dark purplke richness of her cloak, and the animals seem to warm to her extremely well... the background ties the image together nicely too. Good job!

I like how you drew the jewellery!
but, hm... this work appears to be different from your other works

yeah, I was really surprised myself when I finished the picture! I was just experimenting with different colouring, and trying out this amazing tutorial [link] - You should try it, too - it's quite time consuming, but really easy!

The colouring is really good! I think it looks more 'delicate' here than it has on some of your other pieces-- I applaud the colouring on the two animals. Fur is something I try to avoid colouring or drawing! 
Also, glad to see you've been enjoying experimenting!

What can I say, my sweet? I think I will try and come back in five minutes comment this one since I am not able to do it at the moment.
My heart is beating so fast.

Now I am ready to say something although I have the feeling that nothing that i will say will be, in any way, close to what I wish I could. It is not easy to know where to start when there are so many wonderful details in here that I feel so connected with, so powerful and wonderful is this piece of Art. My three animals: the owl, the wolf and the dragonfly, it is all in there. The tiara is breathtaking, I wish I had one like that 
And the celtic symbols, you have chosen my favourite ever, the triskel. I have such a passion for that symbol that when I see one I cannot prevent but to stare at ir for quite some time, it is almost like a beautiful obsession to look to something beautiful and with a powerful meaning.
My dear, I do not know how to thank you, this has truly changed my day, making it a wonderful one. Sometimes there are actions that transform our sadness in something light and free and happy, this is how I am feeling right now: light, free and happy. My heart is so cheerful that it beats repeatedly in a very strange beat.
I will be forever thankful.
I still don't believe this is true.

Thank you for the wonderful words! I rejoice at the thought that I made you happy with my art, at least for one day! Yes, the tiara is totally a fuit of my imagination - I love drawing interesting pieces of jewellery, although I'm nowhere as good at it as ~PippinIncarnate for example...

For more than one day, at least, it was yesterday and I am still happy

that would be such a great idea, making that tiara for yourself. And a matching dragonfly pendant, too

I am looking for a dragonfly items for ages. I managed to find a beautiful brooch in Prague but nothing more than that since I usually don't like what I see.
You just gave me a brilliant idea with the pendant.

thank you!
I do enjoy drawing jewellery a lot. I actually thought, I should've added some of those little sparkly shineys to it... what do you think?
