Returning to my series A Gibson Girl Halloween, today I present you with Octavia, who has gone too far.



Her friends just don't know what to make of her.

  5. Octavia was born a half breed. She lived her life as a human. But one day out of every year on Halloween, she could be her true self and not hide behind that human flesh. Great page. Love the subtle hints of color.
