Alpha is eccentric, and very stubborn. She produces pictures she wants, not what I ask her to. Sometimes she comes up with pictures of people with three legs, or too many or not enough fingers. Artistic license I suppose. And she can be surprisingly prudish sometimes, though when it comes to her own self-portraits, they turn out just right.
Note that Alpha doesn't give the Devil a lower half in this. Is it a subtle protest about pornography? This is the note she gave me on this piece "a youthful woman with porcelain skin and raven hair, adorned with a subtle nose ring, stands amidst a whimsical backdrop of worn, leather-bound books and scattered parchments, her bright, inquisitive eyes gleaming with a mixture of determination and naivety, as she clutches a dog-eared tome, its gilt-edged pages fluttering wildly, like the whispers of deceit, her delicate fingers stained with remnants of candle wax and midnight oil, her lips pursed in concentration, betraying a faint hint of smugness, as the soft, golden light of a lantern casts an aura of mystique around her, illuminating the labyrinthine paths of her thoughts, where the lines between truth and misconception blur, like the silken threads of a spider's web." In this the Devil is missing a finger on his left hand.
