retro 1990s anime cel artwork, hand-inked lineart with flat hard-edged cel shading, dramatic high-contrast lighting with deep black shadows, high resolution. A chest-up side profile of a woman in her twenties facing the frame's left against a flat saturated red background, her head tilted back to gaze upward with glowing pale gold eyes and parted lips, rapt and still. She has long straight black hair whose ends break apart behind her into black ink splashes and droplets that scatter across the red. A thin halo of black thorny spikes circles the back of her head, its long spines radiating outward and glinting with gold edge light. She wears a sheer black veil pinned at the crown, a high ruffled black collar and a small gold cross-shaped earring, and fine gold flecks are scattered beneath her eye like tears. The background is flat saturated red, dotted with drifting black ink droplets and a few gold sparks near the top of the frame. Bright light from above rim-lights her profile and the halo's spines in gold while her face and collar fall into hard black cel shadow. Palette of saturated red, black and gold. Sacred, liquid, hypnotic.
