I used *lucias-stock as a reference for pose and a couple peices of jewelry. Everything is painted by hand except for a couple things I used brushes for, and the basic part of the background which is a purchased resource.... so thanks to `spiritsighs & ~wycked-stock for the bubbles/fog/light rays - you are awesome! Everything else is my own painstaking work with the help of the reference photo.

All work done in Photoshop CS w/mouse and wacom, many many, many hours of work

In her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on the earth.
