The witch gives a soft, satisfied smile as she admires the results of her long-practiced handiwork, gazing at the small cascade of beautifully formed flowers around her as they hover in the air before her and glow ever so faintly with the residual magic that she's still pouring into them even now. Such lovely looking magnolias and violets, flitting and dancing about in midair as she exerts her power to subtly direct and control their motions with the simple flick of a finger... They were only temporary, of course, and would simply fade back into the nothingness she had initially conjured them out of the moment she stopped concentrating on maintaining the spell. Even so, the witch couldn't help but feel a surge of pride and confidence at being able to accomplish what felt like a very momentous achievement well up from within her chest, this was surely a sizable step in the right direction. With enough practice, experimentation, and honing her magical prowess, surely she could grow ever more closer to being able to truly learn and unlock the potential of her natural talent...
Though with that in mind... Now she couldn't help but be curious as to what else she might be capable of with this kind of power, but there would be more than plenty of opportunities to be able to really explore and expand on this further. She had more or less all of the time in the world for it and then some, figuratively and literally...A super gorgeous and lovely-looking YCH piece that I got a bit more recently featuring my beloved woodland witch-hermit deer(?) being Senna showing off some more of what she can do with her magic by summoning some pretty flowers! Been feeling like showing her some more love as of lately, and this seemed like such a perfect piece to be able to get with her in mind! I like to think that this is a scene that takes place from when she was still really learning and exploring more about what she's capable of as a being who's naturally talented at magic, from well before she really started to become a literal and figurative force of nature. After all, even those who are born with the supernatural energies flowing in their veins still have to grasp the basics first and expand their knowledge from there as they explore and experiment with what such power can do before really starting to learn how to master and command it as they desire. This may be one small step for Senna down a long road of being able to truly grasp the capabilities of her power and become a super skilled wielder, but for her it's still a very big thing to be able to accomplish in the grand scheme of things!
That being said, though, this is just such an amazing looking art piece and I couldn't be happier with how this came out! The painterly style really works so well and adds on to that magical, mystical, and mysterious kind of vibe that really fits Senna's character! I just really adore how beautifully done the shading, texturing, and rendering work here is, especially for Senna's fur, horns, and clothes as well as the realistic-looking detailing on all of the flowers around her... And the added glow effects around the flowers themselves and on her runic tattoo are just so lovely too... This kind of atmosphere and style feels like it just really fits Senna so well and the artist did such an awesome job overall, I'm really just beyond happy with how wonderfully this came out~ <33
Also a quick little fun fact, in flower language magnolias mean 'love of nature', and violets are a symbol of modesty and watchfulness, which I felt really fit Senna and her character pretty much perfectly and why I chose those flowers specifically for this!
This super gorgeous and amazing art piece was courtesy of the incredibly wonderful and truly superb artist

“Aha, thank you… It took quite a bit of practice to be able to get to this point, to be fair. But as it is with learning anything, magic takes time to be able to get a good feel and understanding for. I feel like this is pretty substantial progress for sure, though, so for that I’m quite glad! And I’m happy to hear you think so, my friend~” - Senna
Thank you so very much as always for the fave and for the very kind and thoughtful comment, Case! I’m really glad that you enjoyed the story as well, I certainly try my best to make them feel nice and enjoyable to read for those who do~ Always really appreciate reading what you have to say, and I’ve been doing pretty alright so far! I hope you’ve been doing well too, friend~ 💜💜

"Well it looks like to me that all of that practice clearly paid off! It seems like you must really like flowers."

I have quite a few other OCs, yeah! I’d say with my main ‘sona included I have about 5 in total as of now, Kira, Rosamund, Senna, Morgana, and Santiago. Technically I do have a few others, but I haven’t developed their characters and personalities quite enough to really say that they’re actually official OCs nor have they been posted up here yet.
Hmmmm… That’s a very good question! I remember always being really fascinated with dragons while growing up, being a kid who loved fantasy and such, so they’re definitely up there as one of my favorites! Though to be fair, anything that’s a mythical creature or a beast of legend is interesting to me because I’m pretty into that kind of stuff ^^
As far as real world animals, wolves and big cats are definitely pretty up there, though I also like seeing animals that you don’t really see around all that often as ‘sonas and such. I dunno, I just really like it when more underused and underappreciated species are given more attention, haha~
