Bavad is happy because she is having her pineal gland pulled out the back of her head(s)! :) :D I now break into a diatribe about the project for both cathartic and algorithmic reasons (if alt text gets picked up with the algo). The demon Bavad has, for a while, been the embodiment of the desire to hide away from life. Or hurt yourself. You get the idea. Her whole thing is avoidance, to the extreme it becomes painful; pain becomes pleasure in a cowardly way and vice versa. That's why she's always wrapped up like a mummy. Nice warm cinnamon bun with all the syrupy sweetness attracting flies. I frequently get images flashing into my mind. They're the fuel for a lot of what I draw. It's visceral, removed from the logical part of my brain. I see this specific grinning face a lot. Somewhat euphoric and completely all-knowing because it stares directly ahead. But it can look pained and fearful at the same time. It can mean so many things despite a grin being superficially indicative of happiness. Bavad is an excuse to draw this grin. She's a vessel for this feeling. I created her (summoned her in a way), and like my other characters/demons, she's an extension of me. Bla bla bla.
Somehow managed to finish this in less than a day. Ramblings in alt text.
