very neat, I was playing with photocopied keys and bird imagery last year, they're really magnetic icons :3

They seem to go together as well as trees and birds.
Thanks!

The texture looks so cool! Love it!!

[Oh, and how did you get the text to center in your artist's comments section!? I've been trying to figure that out for ages!]

Ah, texture!!! ^_^ Love it. Your birds always make me smile. I love the shading in the upper corner that balances out the bird's shadow, and the key's just wonderful! Very nice!

Thank you! I was unsure about this piece. I thought the texture might be too much. I guess not!
Thanks again.

"Heart's Key"

I'm not a raven,
eagle, or hawk,
but I do provide a haven
for I can "unlock"

Just grasp this key
above my head
and you will see
(though your soul be dead)

That with one little click
in your unbeating heart
(though it were sick)
it will, softly, restart

I'm really liking the extreme textures in this one! Very interesting, and I like the strong lines on the little wing swirl and the wing tips while the rest is soft. Nice work!

I think it's really interesting--it makes you concentrate on the form more.

SethFitts In reply to lucidflux [2009-08-23 00:19:13 +0000 UTC]

Good. The form is just as important as the little symbols in the image.

Thank you! I really like this shape too. There is something about the little chubby birds that I like.
