Wow I am proud of this!! I don't know if I've ever been prouder of an image I've drawn!
Its "Auntie" Henrietta and Daisy the Chinchilla with a candle. As a nightmare (zmora) Henrietta can turn into various animals, including mice and house sparrows (Not quite accurate but close enough: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mare_(fo… - mara is a slightly different monster ).Of course, the two monsters get along very well - Daisy is happy to have someone almost as fierce as herself to confide in, and Henrietta is surprised to learn how interesting Bronia's pet "rat" is once you get to know her.
This is the cover for my Camp Nanowrimo April 2019 novel (Daisy 2 . . . still working on it) Daisy, Henrietta, Bronia and the Lonely Warrior make this candle themselves. Its a lavender and beeswax candle Can't spoil too much about how and why they make it, I'm still working out some of the details of the "how."
