wow - awesome picture! im so messy when im drawing that i probably would have the patience to do all this!
Good job
Great colours, maybe you could do different versions of this, changing the colours so instead of them looking rusty you could make them icy, or purple and blue, or a green theme
anyway keep up the good work!

Excellent picture. How did you do it? You know what it reminds me of is the computer game Okami. Not sure if you've ever heard of it. My comment as an art student and not a gamer is that "although the colours are limited, it has great energy which may even have been destroyed if yuo chose brighter colours. It appears earthen and therefore maintains the strength of fire. The strong use of line make it striking and give a great sense of movement, only accenting the firey inspiration." I just think its really cool - but why the small pale segment on the left hand side?

I am in looooove with patterns and abstract figures like this.. totally looks like hermes-inspired :p.

The colors flow easy on the design, the shapes have no order but they are not messy at the same time, it is pretty cool. I totally agree with xGraceex, you should try it in different colors and versions, like.. different moods, and see how that works, maybe you get a color scheme you like most.

I can imagine this like in clothes or something, it would look really cool. Like.. for school you could have it printed in a tote or something.. and everyone would be able to see your art.

Ooh-la-la!

I like it! I love the simplicity to this! And the inspiration behind it is evidently clear!

I love how bold the black lines are. It keeps the colors from blending, but the piece still has a gentle effect on the eyes. Keep it up!
