toddler-aged “angel presence” shown as wings only (no face, no full body). The wings should imply a small child’s presence without showing features. The wings are grasping/clinging to my right thigh as if a little child is holding onto a mother’s leg (the “pick me up” pose).Placement: Right thigh, flowing downward toward/ending near the knee (thigh-to-knee piece).Style: Black and grey only. Clean, straight/clear linework with restrained shading (minimal, readable, not overly busy). I want it simple but emotionally strong. Minimalist angel-wing designs with clean lines are the vibe.
