This is one of a series of cuts illustrating fairy tales. I think the design is reminiscent of Russian folk art and I like how the design is entirely contained within her cape. I wanted to cut it as if it was a piece of needlework.

The gold ink is incredible to print with, as a little goes a very long way.
