Description Everyone has a yin yang right? well I hate to be seen as part of the croud but I had to make one too. It just formed itself in my head over time. I had quite the fight with what to ink and what not beacuse of the knotwork and of course I was to lazy to use any tools so it is freehand and it was kind of tricky to make it appear symmetrical and round. I really should learn to start out with more of a plan.

That's really cool. I like the intricate knotwork. I'm also practicing a lot of high contrast work myself so it's neat to look at.

Let's say I found this one quite a struggle! But it is always good to practice Plus having a tendency to doodle celtic knots it was a fun change of perspective... have fun creating!

It might be because it is crossing two different cultures if you look at the origin of each But I'm glad to be original.. it is kinda hard sometimes Thankyou!

Beautyfull, I like the black part, and definately the image at the botom, it could be a image on its own.

AtarAtis In reply to Dreamk8 [2007-07-03 15:12:41 +0000 UTC]

I htink tha images are nice as they are because they are ona small scale. If thay had to stand on their own I doubt they'd achieve the same effect. and yeah, I like the balck part too!

Offcourse they look best as a whole, but still i'm so in love with the image at the bottom

Well thankyou! I love ink, it works well with many media, I still want to learn how to do the washed better though, there are soooo many options!

This is so cool, even if you didn't have a plan. I like that the black line is a snake, although it would've been better if the white lines had something similar (although that's just my opinion).

AtarAtis In reply to bookmistress [2007-01-22 21:31:02 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.. though.. the white lines are part of the snake.. the head is biting it's tail... and they only change colour when they go underneath another line.
Was inspired by ouroboros.. you know, the snake that surrounds the world? NEway, glad you like it!
