I finally finished~! In virtually all of its etymological origins, it means "green gem", so I didn't have too much to go on. But it is seen as the stone for new beginnings, healing and growth. The Emerald Flower Cart sells emerald-infused plant-life and healing stones.
Sorry for all the WIPs! It's my fault for taking on too many projects at once but I definitely plan on finishing them all! I did a few studies of a Sapphire Throne-Room
Ahh I had a hard time even getting the WIP done ^; I may scrap this but we'll see how I feel tomorrow!
It's done! I'm getting a liiiiittle faster! xD Aquamarine comes from "aqua marina"-- Latin for "sea water".
Amethyst comes from Greek "amethustos" meaning "not drunken" because the stone was thought to have prevented drunkenness
so I drew a... wine.. house..? xD Anyway I like this one a lot better than the first in terms of getting more across with less. ECONOMY
Kinda esoteric, but I'm using the etymology of each gem to inspire a BG piece (I need the practice!). Garnet comes from the Latin word "granatum" for pomegranate so I made a fruitstand that sells ~magical garnet pomegranates~!
OH The little emeralds here and there are perfect final touches for this cart. Lovely as always!
