Illustration Friday: Phoenix







The phoenix hope, can wing her way through the desert skies,

and still defying fortune's spite; revive from ashes and rise.”

-Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra


with thanks to Twisselman for finding this quote.

You've done wonderful things with the quote... Beautiful bird rising out of the flowers (much farther on the 'hopeful' side of the spectrum than hot ashes). Neat effects on the second one, but I like the un-filtered original better. Happy and peaceful '07 to you and yours.

Nice, both of them. The second one looks like it's being viewed from behind bumpy glass, like in old windows. Interesting!

Stained glass phoenix! That's very serene. Have a happy new year & good luck finding your pattern!
