Talia Steel von Brandt (Painting)
This piece of marble has been carefully sculpted into the likeness of a woman, and then painted carefully.
The woman’s face is a perfectly symmetrical face, her eyes looking with a loving gaze, eyebrows raised ever so slightly. Her petite nose only accents her luscious lips, curved upwards into a perpetual smile.
Her hair, left marble white, hangs loosely about her face, framing it. A single strand hangs in front, almost as if a stray. The rest of her hair is tucked behind her ears to hang loosely to her shoulders.
The body of the statue is exceptionally curvy, the figures ample chest pressing outwards before tucking in for her narrow, thin waist, before broadening for her feminine hips. Hanging from her hip is an intricate herbalists bag, with multiple small, delicate compartments, each carefully carved. She wears an elegant black dress, that clings to her in all the right places, leaving little to the imagination.
Her legs, in tight leggings, swoop inwards from her wide hips before reaching her knees. Her shins and feet are shod in sturdy boots.
In her hands, held across her body is an ebony black staff, the top of which is a skull whose eyes seem to glow with an eerie light.
