What Aenjel said. Okay? Super intriguing, to be enjoyed a little more each viewing.
I'd like to know why your metallic pens look so good and mine suck. What kind of paper are you using? Watercolor? Drawing? Bristol? Textured? What? I need some help.. whaaaaaaa.

I use Uni-Ball pens or Cosmic Shimmer watercolour paints for the metallic/iridescent highlights. The paper I use varies; sometimes cartridge, sometimes fairly smooth watercolour paper. At the moment I'm favouring cartridge paper. I also mostly use Inktense pencils with a waterwash - their colours are so vibrant, much more so than watercolour paints. I hope that helps.

This one is intricately beautiful. If i created this piece, I would recheck my colors once more, closely for perfection and have prints made -and check their colors to make sure it's exact (store them for resale). Next, glaze coat original (properly for inks, water color and pencils etc.) let it dry for a week and open frame it (without glass) and price the original (displayed on my wall).
One feature i especially like are the spaces with white background and the array of colors within the tiny patterns - and the small shapes inside the overall shape of the medium sized shapes themselves. Yeah, I could meditate on just look into- and mentally seep into the patterns and play of lines and dark spaces within this piece. I'd go bigger with this pattern like 16x20 or 18x24, put on my headphones work on it loose myself until its done..... I love the ideas this piece and others like it helps open anyone's mind. I am a fan of your work.

Gosh, thank you for such a lovely and insightful comment. 
One thing, what appears to be white is actually metallic gold - I'm a pretty poor photographer and the metallics just manage to evade my paltry skills and rarely show up well in a photo...
