Alternate titles with bad puns: "Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder" "Here's Looking at You, Kid" "Stunning Beauty" "She's to Die For" ...and so on.
So what is it about beautiful women that can easily kill? Does it sate the little masochist inside everyone? Or does the extra risk make the beauty all the more worth it?
I'm not sure why I drew a gorgon (aka "what Medusa is", aka "snake-haired monster lady that turns people into stone with a glance") like this. I mean, they're traditionally hideous and scary. This version has tusks and wings and claws and everything. Yet that little voice inside my head - an inspirational one, not a psychotic one - told me, "Make her pretty! Make her dangerously pretty!" And so I did. And this gorgon is very pretty and very dangerous. Nothing new, but I still like the concept of dangerous women with claws. Maybe the voice I listened to was just ever so slightly psychotic...
Also, how do snake-haired people style their hair? Or cut it? Goodness, those poor snakes must hate it. IF anyone asks, the rest of the ends of the little snake-hairs are tucked into that bun. Yups. It's totally not because I was too lazy to draw all of the snakes.
Things that still bug me but are too much work to fix: her left thigh/upper leg looks too long and her butt looks weird. I SAID BUTT. KEKEKE.
Requested by . My apologies if you were expecting a big scary hideous gorgon!

This newsletter was "born" back in March 2007, from a conversation between ~Lareth and =FrozenStarRo, who with the help of their friends *Iardacil and =Sylwiaa , wanted to make something to promote known and unknown photomanipulators alike here on DeviantArt. As of September 2009 =ImaginaryRosse joined the project and will be helping us out with the weekly choices. While things have changed over time, the essence of the newsletter is still the same. As of recent, the talented =Behana has joined us in bringing you this weekly newsletter and we are excited to have her on board. This is a special feature, with a selection of 50 manips from the past year that we loved.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
