Galaxies (Patreon)

"There are constellations running under your skin,
Galaxies filling the expanse of your flesh,
There are eternities flowing through the web of your veins,
Your heart, a knot of flames,
Your hair, spun of gold
Your eyes, liquid pain"

I'm really into how this one turned out. The colors are kind of different to what I planned in the beginning, but it seems to be a bad habit of mine to crank up the contrast without even noticing.
I added the sketch and different stages, there was not much change in the initial idea and the end result, except that I left the clothes and jewelry around arms and neck out. When I was done with the golden body hair and the star freckles I really did not want to make the whole thing even busier.

I hope you enjoy it, I am really proud of this one.
