Hey, Rachel!<br>
This is probably a really retarded
way to go about communicating this stuff to you, but I figured it's so all over
the place, it wouldn't translate well via e-mail or whatever.<br>
(Plus my scanner broke, so these are
pooty photographs, but I'm hoping if I kind of vomit it all out, you might have
ideas on organization and stuff)<br>
So, here goes:<br>
First is the sketch I started with
that gives an overall idea.<br>
Basically, The center design would
be flanked by the little lotuses in circles, and then the border (and too
frilly) stuff would wrap around the rest of the ankle/lower leg, kind of like a
band, only in black like the rest and repeating evenly on both sides (unless
you have ideas on making it look more organic and not so rigid and boring on a
body part?)<br>

This would be the center
part:<br>

But with a curly tip like this at
the top:

The lotuses on either side in
circles would be kind of like:

The borders came out way too dark
with the camera, and I really love them but they make the whole thing look
really busy and a little weird. Any advice you have would be a saving grace:

And then finally, I tried to paste
little parts together on paintbrush tonight, but it just came out too big to
fit properly and looking like crap. D'oh:

Meh.
That's what I've got until payday
and scanner.<br>
And if all this is too much junk to
organize, let me know and I'll re-group it and stuff.<br>
Thank you <i>so much</i>
for your time, and help, and art, and everything!
