Zodiac - Ariesby *Ellygator

Traditional Art / Drawings / Fantasy

(2009) 9"x12" pencil, ink, watercolor, gold leaf

I guess I am missing not working on a series, so for this spring I'm planning to do a sequence of all the zodiac signs. I'll use them to experiment both with mixed media and color and to play with some ideas of combining manuscript art and various type-faces with Art Nouveau elements.

Who knows, if I stick with it, maybe I can finally produce my first calendar...

Wonderful work! I think the photo needs some more contrast, though.
