My full piece for the Villainess Art Book from @damesprod.bsky.social and @novamali.bsky.social 🧡

An illustration of a pale woman with horns in a wheelchair looking lovingly down at another darker skinned woman whose face she holds in hand. The darker skinned woman looks up, enraptured. She also holds a distressed man in a chokehold. Out of the man's eyes and mouth come orange smoke which appears to be his soul getting breathed in by the pale woman with horns.
