SciFi and Fantasy Art: Presiding Over The Blue Willow

I had this one up as my self portrait until I decided to stop being silly and put a real picture up, and finish the drawing. The pattern on the bottom is taken from a design seen on Chinese tea-sets in the Victorian era.........supposedly portraying a young woman eloping with her peasant lover and her father's henchmen chasing after her. The water spirit's name is Innati, but I still don't know its sex or what its function is. This will be revealed in due time, I'm sure.

(in the thumbnail this looked like a flasher wearing a carnival tent and i just HAD to see what the heck the longer description would turn out to be ... ~12
