"And her eyes they shone like the diamonds,
you'd swear she was queen of the land.
Her hair hung over her shoulder,
tied up with a black velvet band."

Traditional Irish song about a man who goes out drinking, meets a beautiful woman in the bar (who steals a watch and slips it into his pocket) then gets caught with the watch and is sent to "VanDiemen's Land" (Australia). Fun song, and a fun piece to work on. Not happy with the background, the perspective is off, but the fox, I like her :)

I swear, I am always stunned by your amazing coloring^^! I especially love the dress (i'm so random). My only critique would be that the perspective is off on the floor and wall she is leaning on (things get bigger as they gp towards the veiwer). Other than that, awesome^^!
