+Parvati+

This is my entry for 's contest about indian mythology. :] I just decided to give a try this time~

So about the picture:
I wanted to make a picture about goddess Parvati; Shivas consort.
She is often depicted with Shiva, but I wanted to draw her alone in this picture. (Shiva is referred to that crescent moon at the sky behind Parvati, btw : D)
She has tiger with her and I didn't draw her with four arms, because I founded information about that after I had done the inking! D: Too late to add them now...bwah.

I also wanted to test a black background in this! And that is my first real tiger!! :'D They are so hard to draw...

done with: watercolours,black and white ink and gold gouache
