Fantasy flower - Serpentigena somniferum

I am interested in the fantasy world, the dragons, magic and I used them for the idea of my own magic plant.
Its name became Serpentigena somniferum. Serpentigena means "sprung from a serpent" and somniferum means soporific and (poison) deadly. The seed of the plant is a sedative for dragons; for any other living thing it's a deadly poison.
The girl aquired one of the seeds in the picture, but it has no effect on the girl, because she is a wizard.

I'm drawing this picture on wooden plank with aquarell pencils.


This is the sketch on paper with pencil.

I colorized the surface of plank with dark mordent. First I drew the color of hair. This is exceptional because I usually know only in the end what color it will be.

The colors of the plant I only found out when I drew, as also the girl's clothing, the pattern of bow.

I have drawn the parts outside the iris of the eye to the dark to show that the girl has something to do with magic.
