I am so excited to finally enact the ideas I've had in my head for a while now with the overcoat. When researching different animals, flowers, and minerals that signified or were connected to death, dragonflies caught my eye. They represent a visit from a deceased person, good luck, change and transformation, which I thought was very fitting for Sandal and the culture she was raised in.
Even though this is still a work in progress, I am so excited to see the beginning of something very cool.
This is me attempting to replicated metallic embroidery on a sheer fabric. Not sure how successful it is, could definitely use some refinement, but I'm taking a short break on this to come back with clearer eyes. Still plenty of other things to texture. Advice is appreciated!
