This gal said she wanted a phoenix but had never seen a version she liked. Feminine and on the upper arm were her thoughts, with a way to hide a litte red spot she had on her arm.
Loving Art Nouveau as I do, loving her milky ginger's skin, I chose a flowing and fantasy feel. Her skin allowed for extreme subtlty next to popping whites and brights.
The little red spot became the head of one of the flowers on her back arm.
