Nice work. What does the title mean if I may ask?

Thank you. Ouroboros (tail-devourer) is a symbol depicting a snake eating its own tail. Symbolizing autonomy among other things: [link] This image has a very similar symbolism in general, but also a kind of tail-eating serpent thrown in, which you might find in the detail crops (and in other images of mine)

Simply wonderful, I adore your art so much. May I ask how you get this surrealistic, deformed effect in the faces and bodies of your creations? You are a true inspiration, thank you for sharing your work!

Thank you very much! For the most part I use the Liquify-tool in Photoshop to deform or create particular faces. In this instance, it was one of my goals to make the gender ambiguous.

My pleasure I use it once in a while, but I really have to say the outcome is... well, mostly not like I had it on my mind. You have some amazing skills!
