    I really like #7.... the slight fade in color plays with the eyes... very nice work! (as usual :) )

    I'm really partial to #1. I just love the contrast of white on black :? :D Beautiful job with all of them though, as usual 8-)

    Mrs. Mickeyrat here - I absolutely want it as a tat!! I have even shown it to some people at work, telling them that hopefully it will be my next tat, and they all LOVE it, as do I. My thoughts are that I will put the image in black, with an oval fade of color around it...thinking gradiant shades of teal and purple. Would love to have the line drawing to take to my artist. PM me if you need an e-mail addy. Your work is awesome, and Garden is one of my most favorite songs, so it really is meaningful to me for you to allow me to use your work. Thanks!!

    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    thanks! yeah i'm pleased with the blue too. makes it so much easier to trace everything in illustrator, can change colors with a click! the pencil drawing was fun to do, i came up with it while watching 'in bruges' the other night :)

    I've decided that I like the dark branches against the blue. It looks the most like the trees around here before they get their leaves.
