Utrolig! :clap:
Den ligner ganske mye på den norske Malangsdrakten*, som jeg skal få til neste år. (* som jeg først trodde det var.)
Jeg misunner måten du maler på, jeg klarer aldri å få lagt skyggene ordentlig.

This is really beautiful ^^

But why is she holding an octopus ?

Is it refering to a tale or a legend or something ? :)
:iconjohanna:
Thank you :) And no it's not based on anything in particular, I just like octopuses, and making pictures that make you wonder if it is part of a story.

This is so beautiful. I quite like how styleized everything is.

Really nice.
I love the octopus - the fact that you put it there - it makes you wonder why, and invent possible stories...
