To Mend a Broken Heart

I'm surprised I left this one unfinished for so long. She was started in plenty of time to have ready for Valentine's Day 2013. She was made for that holiday, and yet, I finished her this evening.  The challenge was that after so long of not touching her, I could barely see my sketch lines and it was fun trying to remember what my original plans were for her. 
Finished piece. Difficult to scan, I noticed. 
The first pic is where I began tonight, then I added more details. 

The finished here shows the colors far better than the scan does.
 The gold is metallic watercolor. 

Here are some of her details. I do like her. She's vibrant and not 
quite like most of my past art pieces. 

Later I'll put her on DeviantArt and on Etsy. I have to decide what she'll cost. She is 9x12 on Arches cold pressed watercolor paper. I use mostly Grumbacher watercolor paints, with a few others.
