What is a Portative Organ?
A portative organ(from the Latin verb portare, "to carry"), also known during Italian Trecento as the organetto, is a small pipe organ that consists of one rank of flue pipes, sometimes arranged in two rows, to be played while strapped to the performer at a right angle.
The performer manipulates the bellows with one hand and fingers the keys with the other. Wikipedia

Welcome to nTopaz! It's lovely to see you here, Lady Idra. And this musical instrument translates very well as a spirit design. The head and the gown are especially lovely :).
Thank You Very Much @scrawly.

Hello @livvu. Thank you !!!
I sometimes like to think about how differently humans could have evolved in a different environment. I'd like to think that this lovely specimen feeds off of the pollution in the air, and secretes pure, clean, life giving oxygen to our dying world. Our savior! Beautifully done ^.^

What a strange looking character. Doesn't look too happy, though. What's the problem?
Hi @trincowsky.. I think he is neutral, not to happy not to sad.
Thank You for stopping by. ) : )
