Laude novella sia cantata
A l’alto donna encoronata
Fresca vergene doncella
Priomo fior, rosa novella
Tutto’l mondo a te s’apella
Nella bonor fosti nata
Tu se’ verga, tu se’fiore
Tu se’ luna de splendore
Volunta avemo e core
De venir a te, ornata
—
So should you sow it once, and make it grow,
The sweet Clematis,
Let it flower, and paint it all of the colours bold
Instantly, things fall and sade,
Return to silence,
Why, oh why, why does it all feel so sorrowful?
Dreams of what is real.

I’m pretty much dead from exhaustion after working on this piece for two days straight, but I hope it’s satisfactory to me even after I get some rest and look at it again.
Like the Aradia and Vriska paintings, I’ve combined religious imagery and Homestuck into something… weird and kind of pretentiously cool.
Also, Kanaya is a BAMF and this painting doesn’t come close to portraying that side of her.
Pencil, watercolors, gold watercolor and slight Copics on hot press watercolor paper.
