Description
Miasma - Digital mixed media abstract conceptual portrait with Kate Ista DieNessel wearing a plague doctor Venetian carnival mask fav.me/d8gwep7 .

In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, some doctors (called plague doctors) wore a beak-like mask which was filled with aromatic items. The masks were designed to protect them from "night air" (or miasma) which was thought to be the cause of diseases like The Black Death (plague). I wanted to try to use colors and composition that evoke the mood of "night air" in this.

Prints are high resolution and are not watermarked.
