Zils & Lilies - ACEO

A sister drawing to the previously-posted Gold & Paisley image, this delightful little piece of original art depicts a tribal style bellydancer with lily-adorned hair zilling away to a Middle Eastern rhythm. A sweet shade of sunset pink highlights the dancer and some details in her costume, and a border of purple frames the image.

Both this ACEO and Gold & Paisley utilize the same techniques and are similar in style; they were created almost as a pair within days of each other. I'm not thrilled with this piece (the hands, although intended to be highly stylized turned out really wonky) but it was fun to make.
