The beauty of a writhing snake, with a celestial spray of stars down its back, brings its movement and sensuous curves to unity with the skin.
Finding just the right spot for this sinuous snake to writhe about was a bit of a challenge, but once we decided the head on the top of the foot let the neck turn and flex, giving animation to the pattern, then that kinetic element made this the best choice. Fortunately my very pale Sami friend shows the bright blue dotted color to best advantage.
