Description
You do have to fullview this to see the pure beauty in it.It took me 3 days and 21+ layers to complete this piece and I hope it, at least, amazes some people.
Now, to explain it:
I finished this piece and stepped back and asked everyone who was in my house at the time what I should name it. My good friend, Justin (the Viking, seriously), said the one name that rung true to its form: Ollidarrahha, "The Maiden of Death".
The Maiden of Death is the one you see when you are dying in Norse belief. Instead of some dark hooded, skeleton dude, you see her and you die in peace.

*lol* Cute? Well, I guess in a way it can be cute.
I'm glad that you like this and that I didn't botch it.

Umm...have you been having nightmares lately? That's pretty damn disturbing.

Yep, plenty of them.
I know, I felt a little creeped out while doing it!

Score! I knew I was on to something there, lol. Yeah, there was this drawing I was working on and was creeped out by looking at it. I'm sure it's not a good thing to be creeped out by your own artwork...

*lol* Nope, I don't think it is...it's even freakier when you're just sitting around and an idea like that pops into your brain!
