Happy Eostre

Easter pic! I recently read up a little bit about Eostre, who was a Goddess of Spring and Rebirth to the Anglo-Saxons. The tales of her links with a hare inspired me to this picture. As I planned this piece I had in mind giving it a hint of an Art Noveau style, and I also looked at a few Anglo-Saxon patterns to influence the border. The eggs in the corner I suspect are Cadbury's Mini Eggs-inspired. It was quite a nice one to work on with a bit more detailing again.



Edit! A few things I wanted to change on the picture.
