Aradia Nightbloom — "The Parasol of Midnight"

Aradia Nightbloom — The Parasol of Midnight

Stepping from a moonlit ballroom onto cobblestones, Aradia glides through Halloween with a smile that could charm bats from the belfry. Her lace-edged “wings” sweep like velvet night, and the parasol isn’t for sun—it’s for catching wayward shadows and keeping them as pets. She doesn’t bite; she barters—one compliment for one candy—and leaves a trail of twinkling footprints where dawn forgets to look. If you hear the soft click of heels and a playful laugh behind you, relax… it’s only the most fashionable vampire in town, checking whether your costume passes eternal style.

Hello everyone! Thank you as always for your interest in my art! This is the next character in my Halloween series, Aradia! :) She is a cozy and fun vampire with a parasol. Anyway, I want to give a HUGE WORD OF CAUTION about this particular print. While I have been trying to stray away from difficult support removal, I found that having only characters with short hair hurt the variety of the collection. So while rendering all the hair together as one piece would be easier overall, I find that having gaps between the strands really make them feel more alive in the presentation. PLEASE BE ADVISED: THIS STATUE IS A DIFFICULT PRINT, AND SUPPORT REMOVE AROUND THE UMBRELLA AND HAIR ARE DIFFICULT. If you take a look at the pictures of the model you will see that even I had problems with some of the supports on the hair. Just be patient and use sharp cutters. Go at it slowly and you won't have any problems. I also want to thank all the people who support me, past, present, and future. People like you make what I do so fulfilling. I appreciate all of you so much! If you like my work, please leave a like, comment, or even a boost if you're feeling especially generous. I love seeing your printed and painted works so please, be sure to add those as well! Have a wonderful week!
