Description
ConceptI accidentally melted your tree. You didn't need that, did you?
This was an exercise done after I had taken my medication in just.. relaxing. I'm very structured when I draw, and sometimes run into stumbling blocks of being SO rigid about how things have to be drawn that I just don't know what to draw because it won't fit in the space I have. So for this I literally just took a pencil and drew random circles, then kind of.. let the shapes evolve from there. There was no rhyme or reason. Oh I like a curly feather here. Hey there's a great big eye! etc. I had no idea what it would come out like, but I enjoyed every moment of it.
Materials
This was also an experiment in derping with whatever I had on hand. So there are watercolors, there are acrylics, there are enamels, there are colored pencils used in this piece.

Side notes
I'll be taking a new photo of it soon, the lighting is a bit weird and the colors not QUITE true.
As this was my first step in practicing new things (being relaxed and not so rigid) I feel it was a pretty good step along the way of evolving my art. How are your practice pieces coming along?

And this is why a phoenix sometimes just isn't the most environmentally friendly choice of pet, right? Love it nonetheless.

M.. maybe if you're uh... uh... uh... man now I forgot what the jobs are that involve burning things and are environmentally friendly. Counterfires? Yes! Yes if you're a firefighter who has to do counterfires in forest fires.

Isn't it nice sometimes to just make art for the sake of it?
This looks amazing. I love how well you got the impression of warmth and fire across. The only thing I'd like more would be a higher resolution so that we could see all the detail; that tree and those feathers look awesome!
Congrats on the well-deserved DD, and have a nice day~ Keep up the great art!

unfortunately I don't do higher resolutions due to well... people being not so honest with their dealings with my art. So this will have to do. But thank you so much! This was a great thing to wake up to!
