Description † Click it, click it! †

I haven't decided whether or not to leave this piece as it is, but most probably making it a full coloured piece.
Done for LJ Fringeart's Imitation of a Famous Artwork Challenge. .

I know Art Nouveau is terribly popular, but I'm most comfortable with stylised lines as compared to my favorite artist, Da Vinci; which is impossible for me to imitate due to my horrendous skills at canvas. So I decided to pick Alphonse Mucha's Rodo.


The gleaming motifs are based on my silver-plated flower pendant, in this case I changed the flower to monkshood. Besides being a cool reminder of my favorite professor, the flower's meaning is also 'beware' and symbolises difficulty in being physically close to others. Sounds like someone we know?

Nice, he's really sexy. I like the background, it reminds me of the backgrounds blackeri uses for her 'seven deadly sins' series... did you take the idea from there?

I like it the way it is now.

If you did want to add more color, I would make them light.

It's always good to see art influenced by Mucha.
I like the composition, and the font is perfect. I'm impressed with the graceful, flowing lines of it. Very pretty.
I hope you color it, I'm sure you will do a good job.
