Helen Frankenthaler, Concerto, 1982,

Acrylic on canvas,

53 x 39¼ in (134.6 x 99.7 cm)

Everyone asked me for the butch and then I went on holiday oops

A big redesign of an old side character, now named Cadenza -Denza for short. Concerto's older sister and (remaining) eldest child of the Virtuoso. A highly respected and very powerful family within Nightmare that have a bloodline running back to when Wizeman first established Boss class Nightmaren. In my universe I think most of the boss Nightmaren would be swapped out for others (which I haven't all designed yet, but the blue Ideya gets members of their family).

With being in such high standings with Wizeman, Denza kind of knows how to cheat the system and get up to some illegal shit, operating various avenues out of a huge casino. Everyone who goes there is also in mutual agreement not to let it get back to Wizeman, and for those who aren't, Denza is more than happy to deal with herself. Hardly anyone is willing to mess with the Virtuoso's and even less people are willing to fuck with Denza.

I've been playing around with the idea of the main visitors in the story somehow ending up in her casino and having to not only dodge regular Nightmaren patrons to keep their ideya intact, but also her when she finds out.
