  4. Love the bird! It's like a birdderfly. Is an earth sign next?
    Again, I love the arch designs at the bottoms. They tie the series together nicely and represent the elements well. This one screams 'air sign!'

  6. I've just been picking them at random to work on Lori, though leaning towards Taurus next.

  7. Perfect as usually. I follow your shadowscapes site and it gives me so much power to create something new. Sorry for my English, I'm from Poland :) This piece I like a lot - Gemini is my sign of Zodiac :) Lovely colors.
