Decided to have some fun with this... Gods know, my regular life hasn't had much of that, lately. Stupid passport crap... I'll get there. I WILL, even if I have to walk across that ridiculous border. Grrr...
Anyway, my first post in nearly three weeks, folks- something pretty for your eyes. A nice, intertwined trio of dragons. Not a style I often do, but then, I've always liked Celtic knotwork.

*big raspberry- pffffttt!* I wanted a background to frame it. Seemed naked, with nothing behind it, when I finished colouring the knotwork. So I went with something detailed, but coloured in a lighter fashion, so the dragons stayed the focus. I like the sunlight effect. But Blotch does it better than me. *sighs*
Awww, thanks, you. *nuzzles your cheek* Now that my passport forms are finally filled out, I'm just waiting for a paycheque so I can pay for the processing. The passport thing was one of the things getting me down, 'cuz it was proving to be really frustrating to get all the required info together...
You know, that's really nice. It bears a strong resemblance to this thing I was oft trying to introduce into games of Mage: The Ascension-- the "Enigma," a.... well. In-game self-limiting property of magic representing it's inherent wondrousness.
Cool! The sunbeams in the background really top it off nicely.

Hiya, my bear buddy! Glad you enjoy it... My own sense of wonder had taken a bit of a walk (been feeling low with winter coming on), so I used the colouring of this to try and find it again... I'm hoping to get better at this sort of thing (I really like how Blotch does colour effects with just water-colour... Wow). I prefer pretty to pr0n, anyway, though pr0n can be fun...
Mage was a cool game- I liked playing Dreamspeakers. Always had a shamanic bent, me. Need a high Enigmas rating to do well as a shaman. Nice that this evokes that sort of thing for you!

That would be pretty sweet- sell stuff by lots... I don't have the facilities to do it, though. I do have a small kiln so I could melt metals and attempt small numbers of pieces. I also do silver-clay work, which is fun and frustrating by turns... Hmmmm.... *ponders the possibility*
The Celts actually had a symbol that was a bit like the Yin-Yang, with three pieces to it. Buddhists used something like it too. I merely adapted the idea for a knotwork. This kind of thing is hard for me to do- I'm not always consistent in my line-work. But I lucked out and got a nice little bit of pretty this time. thanks for liking it!
