I FINALLY got this done! I'm SO sorry for how long it took, I had so little motivation and was stressed out with school. I hope it was worth the wait, I worked really hard on the design. It was my first attempt at a complicated busy/full design. I really like how I did the wings! The colors ended up more pastel rather than neon, but I kinda like it that way! Anyway, I decided to name her Iris and made a lil backstory for her! BACKSTORY: Iris. Iris personifies "rainbow" in Greek mythology. This rainbow goddess was considered to be a messenger of sorts – a link between Heaven and Earth, or a bridge between gods and mortals. Aside from her place in mythology, Iris shares the name with some of the most well-loved, dazzlingly beautiful perennial flowers. Iris never thought of herself as a goddess, but she did bring life in someway. She was the life of every party she went to. Her upbeat attitude and playfulness really kept the vibe going. She loved hanging out with her friends, late into the night. Her room was filled with fairy lights and glowy stars on her ceiling. Iris had always been drawn to colorful accessories and rainbow hair dye, it was in her nature. The thought of being pure white like how she was a kit never crossed her mind. Iris maintained her dyed fur every week and bought new dye regularly. Yes, she was a regular cat. Yes, she wasn't worn with rainbow fur. YES, she is definitely not a goddess. All of that is true, but it doesn't mean she isn't unique in some way. Every one in a while, she'll wonder why she was named Iris. Sure, even as a young kit, she was heavily in love with bright colors, but the moment she was born, she was just an ordinary white cat. One night, she asked her mom why she was named Iris, the name of the rainbow goddess. Her mom replied, "Because, from the moment you opened your eyes, I knew you were special, a blessing. Your eyes shone with a rainbow glint, and your fur seemed to glow." Sometimes Late at night When the moon glows bright The sound of Iris' laughter fills the air with a golden light And from her back rises glowing wings in all the colors you can imagine
