Description
‘‘Enlightened’‘
"Nothing is more creative than death, since it is the whole secret of life. It means that the past must be abandoned, that the unknown cannot be avoided, that 'I' cannot continue, and that nothing can be ultimately fixed. When a man knows this, he lives for the first time in his life. By holding his breath, he loses it. By letting go he finds it." ~Alan Watts
Recently finished oil painting...

Hello there!!
I was wondering if it was alright for me to utilize this artwork for a banner on a roleplay site called "Animal Jam Clans Wiki"? I will gratefully provide you consummate credit in your username with a link to your DeviantArt profile or whatever you'd relish me to utilize as credit. I will not diminish the appearance of the image in any scarcely way.
RP SITE LINK: animal-jam-clans.wikia.com/wik…
If not then I understand!

Beautiful work, I love the colors used in this, and the way the two halves that are so different mesh together perfectly. The use of complimentary colors is awesome as well, making the whole piece more vibrant.

Now you just need to do a one that is half weed leaves, hehe.
I personally have never tried mushrooms, but I heard they aren't that bad.
Amazing quality, hard to even comprehend that this was painted by hand.
Keep up the great work!

I actually really want to do something with weed leaves, they need more praise for their medical powers! I also think mushrooms aren't that bad, I'd be interested in a microdose o: same for LSD, it's easy to get it here xD

Fair enough, all of those (including weed) are considered illegal here.
However, weed is so easy to acquire, that the police hardly even bother with it.
Especially if you're just using it medicinally.
Like yours truly
And I can't say I have tried LSD, either. Though I also can't say I have heard anything positive, like the others.
But the properties of mushrooms have the potential to treat, if not, cure depression.
