New Congo Design for "The Enchanted Glen"

Every so often we switch up the design for "The Enchanted Glen" Congo. This week's theme is "Star Maiden", which refers both to a Native American legend, and Astraea, a Greek Goddess.

My goal was to pair a fairy-like maiden with an ethereal, galaxy-type background. I found a beautiful painting by Warwick Goble (which is in the public domain), took the maiden out of the picture, and created a background for her to float it.

I'm very happy with the result! My sister Tanya (from Personal Photo Art) added in the little wispy embellishment and it turned out exactly as I'd hoped!
