Miette

This is Miette. She is a character I had to make/create in my illustration class. She works in a circus as a Tarot card reader (is there any other words for this kind of thing? My brain is playing hide and seek, for the moment). She has a big handicap, though... she's a mute. So, to help her around, she has a giant friend, Caroube, and a black cat, Vermicelle. When they are not around, she uses a blackboard and chalks to communicate. The background is sloppy because I didn't have any time to make it, so... But I entend to do a Steampunk-verse background.
What do you think?

Character by: me
Names: Miette is actually the name of one of the main characters in "The City of Lost Children" (which you MUST see). It was fortuitous, though.
