DE PROFUNDIS AD ASTRA

Heaven
Heaven's bodies
Whirl around me
Make me wonder

And they say, back then
Our universe
Was an endless land
Until our ancestors
Woke up and before
They went back to sleep
They carved it up
Into the world we know

--

Blue sky
Blue sea
Song of a southern island

When the white flower blossomed
A daughter was born
The girl was given
The name of the flower

I. AM. EXHAUSTED.
But I'm happy!

Feferi is one of my favorite trolls, although I've always been a bit perplexed about her, since we still don't know that much about her in contrast to the other trolls. However, what we do know about her is really, really neat.

This piece doesn't have quite the monochromatic color scheme as the other troll girl paintings, but Fef's a big fan of pastels, so I went with a very vivid, varied palette.
