I drew @gross-galaxy's characters, Fatimah and Henri Charmolipi, for a cosy little art exchange organised by @squidknees. these two are siblings, originally from the Ottoman Empire, now resident in Paris in an alternate past where the Commune de Paris became a fixture, and also there's werewolves and stuff. a cool setting!

the flowers that Fatimah is arranging are oleander and Henri is in the honey-covering stage of making baklava, both of which are native to the Gaziantep area that they come from originally. I love painting clothing and leaves and loathe and abhor painting tables
