Secret Santa Gift for :iconsilvair:
Through :iconsecretsantashelper:

The inspiration for this one was the character's name "Crimson"
At one time the dye to create the color crimson was obtained from the females a certain type of insect... kermes. So I placed him in a kermes oak, collecting the dye. Unfortunately I cannot think of that as not being rather cruel to the bugs. So I put the male kermes in there as well, in an attempt to portray an understanding between him and the insects and the tree... some sort of symbiosis.
In a happy side effect, the whole picture turned out rather Christmas-y looking.

This is just all further proof of my insanity :D
Anyway, Comments are welcome!

I hope you like it silvair!

Omg wow.
You are too awesome for words ;__;.
I absolutely adore this! It's like getting a personalized Mucha piece! And I love how you incorporated the oak and holly to create a deeper story to the picture and the character's name and the Christmas feel it has <3.
Thank you so much pepper-tea! :hug:
