In the past, I've usually tried to capture shared experiences in a piece, however with this particular one, as it's for my best friend's birthday who likes "dark" things and was born on Valentine's Day, I painted the following nesting doll which is my take on her zodiac symbol...
Rough sketch...
The doll I used actually had a hole in the bottom, so it allowed for me to sew the felt parts...
Final with inside parts...
;D
