Heart of Ice


Grogg, why do I keep waking up at odd hours of the night? Bleh, stress.

Good news is the insomnia allowed me to complete another commission. This is for Miss Chobits, who also is running a contest I need to finish an entry for. This is her avatar sporting the lovely midnight dress and the new ice skin. It all reminded me of one of my faaavorite fables, the Snow Queen, hence the beautiful but distant and untouchable look. Very bittersweet tale, but easy to fall in love with. All about how no matter how cold, warmth will always thaw the ice(meant to be taken on as many metophoric levels as possible). Side note, its fun drawing crinoline dresses!

Also very similar to how Spring was saved from Winter's grasp by the people of the north. Who Winter had turned into a bunch of animals! The heroes were a bear and a bunny. Fun story!

Drawn to Akino Arai-Reincarnation

Afoot! Afoot! Things are afoot!
