The lynx woman that gazes back at you from within the dark wood framed portrait hanging up on the wall is truly the very visage of stunning beauty and graceful elegance... Dressed all in fine sapphire silks that cup her chest, wrap around her arms, and drape over her shoulders like a satiny spider web, gossamer-like sheer that covers where the azure fabric can't otherwise reach, and endowed gorgeously in silvery regalia encrusted with deep purple jewels depicting crescent moons that hang all about her. A pale light spills all around her, highlighting her dark fur and even darker markings, making the glittering makeup around her eyes glisten that much more brightly, and giving her curved purple horns a radiant, alluring glow. She seems almost seraph-like in her comely appearance, a sort of bewitching, unearthly beauty that makes her feel untouchable, ethereal... Like it's almost hard to believe that she could actually be a living, breathing person that truly exists somewhere out in the world. Yet every intricate detail captured in this picturesque visage down to the fine strands of her fur, the swooping ridges that run along her horns, the keen edges of her fangs, and the glinting, metallic sheen of her jewelry seemed too tangible, too genuine to feel like it was simply painted on with an artist's brush and canvas.

And yet... Something about this portrait feels almost vaguely unnerving the longer you look upon it. Perhaps it's the furtive-looking expression that her countenance bears? The way that the slight, upwards curve of her lower lids, the playfully impish arch of her brow, and how she bares her teeth in a sharp, roguish grin makes her seem so deviously beguiling? Or maybe it has something to do with how all of the pretty amethystine jewels that drape about her arms, throat, and upon her ear look uncannily like a multitude of eyes, all staring right back from within the frame? Or it might be how you can feel those violet eyes burning into and through you, seeming to scrutinize you down to your very bones, constantly leering at you as if beckoning you to come closer? Whoever she may be... she seems like the kind of person that, while incredibly lovely beyond belief, it was likely best to admire her from a distance. Who knows what it could possibly be that lurks behind those bright, beautiful eyes and playful-looking smile, but it likely couldn't mean anything good for anyone who chooses to involve themselves with her... Like a rosebush, seductive and enticing from afar... yet those who drew in close would realize their mistake too late, only moments after they had already felt the punishing bite of its thorns for their troubles. To touch or even come within arm's reach of her would surely bring with it a myriad of unforeseen consequences that no one man could ever be prepared for. Unless maybe you were brave or simply crazy enough to willingly want to take that first step into her world, and see what truly awaits you there on the other side...

An absolutely stunning, beautiful, and super lovely YCH portrait piece that I got a while ago, featuring my dear demonic lynx lady Kira sporting a rather ravishing dress outfit with some gorgeous silver finery to match! So incredibly gorgeous, she looks like she's all gussied up and ready to head to a ball or perhaps a fancy dinner party of some sort! Though if you know her well enough to read that sly-looking expression, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to keep a close eye on her in particular... God only knows what she could get up to when you'd least expect it! Granted, it would be fairly minor and mostly harmless at worst, so it's probably not anything to get too worried about. Though if you do happen to see her wandering around at a party somewhere, you might not want to drink from the punch bowl... unless you really do plan on having a 'good time' that night! Hehehe~
That being said, I just super adore this piece and am truly amazed at how incredibly it came out! This is perhaps the most gorgeous Kira has looked by far, from the absolutely beautiful-looking dress outfit to her facial expression... The slight dips under her eyes, the crafty-looking curves of her brows, and that toothy smile really captures that signature, characteristic slyness and hits that aspect of her personality right on the head! And that's not to talk about the sheer amount of stunning detailing and texturing work that went into this piece that really makes it feel like a feast for the eyes! The softness of all the fur, the way tufts of it stick up and out through the netting around her shoulders, the smoothness of her horns and how they glow brightly yet faintly under the light, the glistening shine of her silver jewelry, the added motifs of the moon and perhaps a few hints of summoning circles hiding about, the way the jewels seem to look a lot like little eyes... The little added touches of the shimmering makeup around her eyes and the scattered splashes of glitter and gloss across her face is just so lovely, and the contrast of the soft shadows with the pale, cold light as it falls upon and illuminates her features and catches her jewelry really makes her pop out very nicely from the background! The artist really did a super amazing and wonderful job with this, I'm really just so awestruck and blown away by how incredibly it came out~ <333

This incredibly fantastic, dazzling, and stunning art piece was courtesy of the super delightful, lovely, and marvelously talented artist  Brymcha! Gosh, thank you so very much again, both for such an awesome and enchanting art piece and for the opportunity to have been able to work with you! It was really an absolute pleasure to be able to talk and collaborate with you, and it was quite an exciting journey to watch this come together through the whole artistic process! It was truly quite an honor to be able to ask you to draw my dear Kira for this, you did such a phenomenal job with her and with all of the details in this piece! The moon theming for her jewelry, the eye-like gems studded throughout, and the addition of the chain wrapping around her horn were all just really cool little touches, I love that you incorporated your own ideas into the design of her outfit and executed them beautifully as well! Your attention to detail is certainly something to be admired, and your amazing artworks definitely show it well! Again, thank you so very much for such an excellent piece, I hope that we can collaborate together again on something like this sometime in the near future! I'll most certainly be looking forward to the opportunity, and definitely keep up the wonderful work in the meantime~ <333
And hey, if you really like the look of this and would like to see even more, then head on over to Brymcha's page, give her a watch, fave the original post of this piece and any of the other works in her gallery that catch your interest, and if you'd like to get some super lovely art for yourself then please do consider commissioning her! As of now, she is currently offering portrait commissions in a new style that she's developed for $35 a piece, and while they're not as super detailed as her usual works like this one and others in her gallery are, they are nonetheless still very lovely and worth grabbing one if you're interested! Alternatively, she does have a good many YCHs available and up for grabs if those are more to your liking! She does have primarily SFW YCH pieces on her main account, but if you're looking for something a bit more on the spicy side then she has NSFW content over on her secondary account  Brymchan if you'd like to give her a follow and catch any YCHs that are put up for sale over there too! Regardless of what it is you're looking for, you can be sure that you're getting amazing artwork for a good price and it's certainly worth ordering something from her if you like her style and what she has to offer! And even if you're unable to afford a commission or aren't particularly interested in grabbing any art, I highly encourage you all to at least give an awesome and delightful artist the attention and support she deserves by giving her a follow! Either on her main page, her secondary page, or even both if you'd like!

Links to Brymcha's currently ongoing $35 portrait commissions and her currently open and available YCHs will be provided below! As far as I know, it's uncertain if she's currently offering regular commissions at the moment, but if nothing else it wouldn't hurt to shoot her a Note and ask if you're not sure!
