Ishtar's Last Dance.

They say her eyes can enchant you into oblivion. They say that her hands trace the patterns of the universe, and that her smile tempts even the greatest gods.

And they say that Ishtar's dance is the last thing any being will want to see.

---------------------------------

This is, again, a collaboration of many things. . . brushes by Anna Sea , Annika Von Holdt, and Sarah; photographs by Mr. Jones, Mr. Triffo, and myself; and a digitally airbrushed painting of a woman entirely based on a photo by Joris van Daele (and some of the minute details are directly taken from the photo, as my skills in airbrushing are doubtful).

A flight of fancy that began while waiting for my research paper to print, and later evolved into my first piece in almost a month.

Inspired by the musings of a belletrist.

Full view is a must.
Enjoy.
