'Oberon' (watches Titania while she sleeps)
Oberon to Robin Goodfellow (Puck): "...Fetch me that flower; the herb I showed thee once."
from 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' by William Shakespeare.

Created in Affinity Photo using my free 'Nature' brushes.

Wow! Thanks, MmmMaarten,

I'm glad you like it.

I wasn't sure about it myself and did about 4 or 5 version, then decided to go with that one. I just used a few of my 'Nature' brushes to paint in the ferns plants, trees and rocks and a few of my texture brushes for the hair. I used a layer blending mode to get the purple light over several layers of plants and textures. I used one of my 'Glitter' brushes for the lips and eyelids. It's all experimentation, really, to see what comes out of the chaos (ha-ha!). I was reading Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream', which inspired me...

Yeah, totally recognisable. I heard once somebody say that a good artist doesn't continue working on a piece forever until it is 'perfect', but knows when it is 'good enough'. I believe that true and think that's very healthy! Keep doing what you do, you have a distinct style
