Literally ... the 11th hour. Hopefully, they get it in time for it to qualify.



So, for some reason while taking a bath I randomly felt
like entering the design contest again! It's that simple.

I think I've just been having some bad luck lately
and wanted to challenge myself and do something fun.
At the same time, I had wanted to do an "actual" art
nouveau piece and so blending the two ideas lead us here.




I didn't go overly in your face Canada on this one as I
usually do or as people usually do, though her bouquet
is made of trilliums, the background is intentionally Canadian,
and she's got a few maple leafs here and there because
I not only love maple trees and their leaves I'm also quite
fond of the idea that they represent our country. :3
Additionally, skirt is meant to and hopefully looks like
waves of silver. I also incorporated the convention logo
into the moon, so overall I'm very happy with the balance
of things! I believe it's neither too much nor too little.

I hope you guys like it!

Thanks for all of your support. :3

Your work is so clean and detailed... Beautiful style, reminds me too much of Art Nouveau.

Thank-you! I'm glad it does since (in the description) it mentions I was very specifically trying to evoke Art Nouveau. X3 Lawl, it's okay though, my descriptions are always super long and likely annoying to read. Thank you again for the support, I'm very glad you like it!

Such a pretty work, and gorgeous colours. I love the way the wind is blowing her hair and dress to get the art nouveau look.
