The Gorgon Medusa, fabulous creature from Greek Mythology.

From Wikipedia:

"The name derives from the Greek word gorgós, which means "dreadful." While descriptions of Gorgons vary across Greek literature, the term commonly refers to any of three sisters who had hair of living, venomous snakes, and a horrifying visage that turned those who beheld it to stone.

Las descripciones varían en la literatura Griega, el término se refiere comunmente a cualquiera de las tres hermanas que poseían cabellos de serpientes vivientes y una mirada y apariencia horripilante que transformaba a aquellos que las miraban en piedra.

Another wonderful piece.

great background and colors, love the pattern in the tail, does create a sense of scales and snake like feel

Thank you for noticing, it took a while to pull off. This is my "return to dA piece" so I wanted to put my best into it.
