Description
(2009) 9"x12" pencil, ink, watercolor, gold leaf, photographed and framed in PhotoshopSome rich earth and harvest tones for Virgo. She's turned out a little less spring-inspired than Taurus, though the greenish slate-grey of the image is a little more emerald green in reality. The girl's head and flower decorations are based on the fabulous Mucha-inspired stock from

This resembles your jewelry a little bit. I love all the curves, the soft colours and the portrait in the middle.

Thank you! That's a really lovely compliment - I guess it shows that I've been able to develop something close to a personal style.

Danke, oft ein Zeichen, dass ein bisschen "niedlich" oder flach rueberkommt. Das wollte ich vermeiden.

I like the face foward directness of this. Seems like a lot of he virgo pictures are a bit on the droopy side, pretty, but never looking you in the face, which makes her quite a nice change.

Thank you! I think Virgos can be pretty judgmental and direct if they feel that someone is sloppy or compromising their standards, so I guess that informed my choice of her expression...

Thank you! It's really fun to experiment with color after such a long time of working just in pencils.

Like those colors, they look serene and really do a good job of representing the description of virgos.

I like the earthy tones, and the blue reminds of fresh water. Feels a bit like spring too.

Thank you. I sort of let the colors pick me rather than the other way round...

That is awesome! Of course this is my sign and I do love this!

Ah the first human...she looks like she's inviting me to bring it on. Nicely done!

Thank you! I always thought Virgo had a tremendous amount of power and discernment. She's not some simpering maiden...

True. Virgin does not equal weakling...male OR female. Though a girly-looking woman can be deceivingly strong, too!

Aaah, die Jungfrau, mein Sternzeichen. SuperschΓΆn wieder geworden.

Danke, Virgo ist mein Aszendent, deswegen hat dieses Sternzeichen auch wieder viel Spass gemacht.

Yep. That's gotta be the... bigger half of myself
And I like those colours... a warm, autumn palette.

I knew that was `lockstock immediately. It's my lady's sign as well. Lovely work Elly.

Thank you, I actually had her stock in mind for the image before I even started...

Thanks so much! I love making these.

Awesome! Finally something for Virgo that isn't super-girly. Strong, I like it!

Definitely. She has a lot of power and analytical ability - more like Athena than some silly simpering maiden...

Exactly! Those definitely come across clearly in this.
