Snake theme was influenced by an Austrian artist Gustav Klimt in terms of its colors and patterns. These are two images that I looked up for the concept.
Klimt, Water Serpents I, 1907 
Klimt, Water Serpents II, 1907
And this is my illustration that is affected by above images.
Klimt, Water Serpents I, 1907
Klimt, Water Serpents II, 1907
