As weapons, scythes are rather hard to handle, so I don't get many opportunities to draw them. If I were to draw this character in a more orthodox style, I'd make her costume black, but I figured this sort of outfit ought to be all right, too. l planned to give her wings a lizard-like texture, but when I applied the green color they wound up looking more like an organic plant material. Does it look interesting? Rather than a member of the demon world, she looks a bit like someone dressed in a revealing party outfit, but that's just my style. The cross was added for this collection. Check out her stiletto hoofs!

This drawing was created to illustrate Bach's St. Matthew Passion, but in terms of content it of course has no relationship at all. It's a transition image, and I included it because I wanted something different from the other, more "sacred"-style
illustrations.
