Forest Dryad

I'm pleased to share with you folks the final art and design for the Forest Dryad token coming to you.
Before painting, I looked at a lot of dryad artwork out there. I wanted to push past expectations for myself. I wanted to have some fun with colors and see how I could use Howard Lyon's reference together. I think you'll all agree this worked out well.
Earlier in the week when conceiving the idea I knew I'd need better references than what I could Google up. I took myself to the craft store and found a bunch of flowers to work with. I needed more reference because of the angle I was aiming for by having the flower budding from her head. That's quite an unusual angle that most folks are not taking of any flowers in general.
Here's the art without the card design. It's oil on a 9x12 panel.

Love this one! The expressive hands ... the limited palette. So good.
