An art-nouveau-ish commission for a lovely client who wanted to be a forest elf. Based on the gorgeous reference she sent me.  This took far longer than I anticipated for many reasons, one of them being how time-consuming and hand-murdering celtic knotwork is! Now I remember why I haven't done knotwork in years... x_X;;   But I love to draw side-profiles, and especially elegant elvish ones.

Mechanical 0.5 pencil, around 30 hours.
