Rhino steampunk

The people in this card reminds me of the Mystic toad people

in the film "The Dark Crystal". The Rhino being their powered

transportation gives it a rather steampunkish feel to the fantasy.

Thanks Victoria for this beautiful Irina Petelina card!

Buryati girls

The Buryats, or the Buryat-Mongols, numbering approximately 500,000, are the largest indigenous (aboriginal) group in Siberia, mainly concentrated in their homeland, the Buryat Republic, a federal subject of Russia. They are the major northern subgroup of the Mongols.
Buryats share many customs with other Mongols, including nomadic herding, and erecting gers for shelter. Today, the majority of Buryats live in and around Ulan-Ude, the capital of the republic, although many live more traditionally in the countryside. They speak a dialect of Mongol language called Buryat.[5] According to UNESCO's 2010 edition of the Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger the Buryat language classified as severely endangered.

Thank you so much Victoria for this beautiful card!
