Description I saw an axolotl a month or two ago and was inspired to paint this for no other reason than I like their weird, macabre ghostliness
Might add a bit more detail at some later stage, but for now I just want to upload something!

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY FAVES
I really appreciate every one of them

The dress is like an optical illusion; it makes me see her as Chinese hibiscus flower personified. It also kinda looks like blood vessels.
Great work! ^^

Wow! This is so beautiful! Which is even more amazing considering the subject, axolotls are very silly pudgy little things, and are rarely done up with such beauty.
