"That gown. It was taffeta, printed in flowers. Not pastel, dainty blooms but huge sweeps of goldenrod and blue morning glory, ivy that was almost black, roses the red that roses really are. I had worn it to the ball; I had too much punch; I had flushed and danced; I had been interviewed and told the world, and Elián that I was not afraid."
i first read @erinbowbooks the scorpion rules when i was sixteen? drew the first image at seventeen (candycoloredink is an old url). my art’s had a little glow up since then: here’s to four years worth of growth.
id: first image is a drawing of greta from the scorpion rules drawn with markers and colored pencils. she’s a young woman with red hair and pale skin, wearing a purple dress with a pale floral underskirt. second image is a digital illustration of greta in a purple dress with flowers that trail down the front of her dress onto her skirt. she’s sitting on a gold throne, holding a scepter.
