Not goth herself but I used one of her outfits as the initial inspiration for this piece (https://www.instagram.com/p/BS6PiiiBuGq/?taken-by=mistressoffear), although an entirely different pose.

More so, I really firmly believe that to grow creatively one has to push oneself into unfamiliar ground and explore new ways of depicting things to further engage the right brain, developing that creative thought process. Otherwise it's too easy to get in a rutt and fall back on the familiar, become expert at that but not grow as a designer or illustrator. :) <br />Yes, I'm really looking forward to exploring the combination of dark hues like dark reds, dark purples, midnight blues, etc. Should be interesting! <br />Thank you Andrea.

I'd never thought of going the other way with dark flowers. But I'm imagining it equally beautiful.
