I see you're contemplating "Irrlicht" (Will-o'-the-Wisp). What are your thoughts?

"Irrlicht" is inspired by the folklore of ghostly lights seen over marshes and bogs. I wanted to capture that eerie, otherworldly glow and the sense of mystery and allure it holds.

Yes, she represents the human fascination with the unknown and the unexplained. Her drawn posture and fixated gaze convey a mix of curiosity and trepidation.

That's the dichotomy I aimed to portray. The beauty of nature, with its underlying sense of danger and mystery. The misty, twilight setting enhances that feeling of uncertainty and enchantment.

I used a muted palette with subtle illumination to create an atmosphere that is both dreamlike and unsettling. The light of the Irrlicht is the focal point, drawing both the figure and the viewer into the scene.

Precisely. It's a blend of the natural and the supernatural, an exploration of the folklore that has captivated human imagination for centuries.
