I've been seeing Owliegirl's OC Aesthestics, and decided to do one for the Dark Empress. I don't know how to convey the creative deep rich alien darkness I experienced as young kid from reading HP Lovecraft and all the sword and sorcery of the time, and what I've put into this character. But this is an expression of it.

Music: Don't Kill it, Carol, by Manfred Mann's Earth Band. A song I listened to a lot, along with Blinded by the Light.
