Description
7 Deadly sins. This had to be re-sized to upload as the original image size of 43.4MB was a teeny bit too large and DA wouldn't accept me uploading at that size lol!Its now about half the original size making it 290cm wide and 55cm high and hopefully keeping enough of the details in there
From left to right…
Lust - reds in colour - roses are more a symbol of love but how many people confuse lust with love?
Sloth - lazy blue and dull grey idle as blowing bubbles and daydreaming 
Wrath - violent purple rage anger and grapes of wrath of course bad temper or just sour gapes?
Vanity (or pride) - mirror frames and peacock like feathers for the wings on this heart and blue/green colours 
Greed - dark little heart with claw like clutching wings - mine amm mine - a bit like a miser 
Envy - the green eyed monster of jealously clinging wanting 
Gluttony - fooood pale pink cause it reminded me of sugary candy and cake icing and marshmallows and other such sweets made this heart larger and more bloated looking created in collage form with photoshop
all images used my own images or my own stock all background textures can be found in my stock textures folder here [link]
The roses and leaves on ‘lust were taken from my fractal stock folder here [link]
The ivy leaves from a tattoo design of mine here [link]
One exception to this was for the greed image for the coins.
stock for that can be found here [link]
All images can be found individually here
Lust - [link] Gluttony - [link] Greed - [link] Sloth - [link] Wrath - [link] Envy - [link] Vanity - [link] all individual segments of this are available as prints but i am unable to submit this collage of all seven parts as the sizes won't allow me to re-size - so this image is only available on mugs sorry!

Excellent concept, and very well executed. I love the consistency in the designs

thankyou so much for the compliment 
i think when i create a 'series' of images i do try to keep some consistency in it - that make things look like they belong as a set opposed to having them all differing to much

I think it's cool that it turned out this way where you can view them all at once

lol i did each piece separate using pieces of fractal and some of my stock textures and here and there a couple of stock images ( i think only really for the coins on greed) then a lot of photoshopping lol

it was always my intent to get them all together in one piece but originally the size of this one was huge and DA wouldn't let me upload it so had to downsize by half before it worked but i'm glad you like the finished result.

All together, just how they should be - letting the sinning commence.
Joking aside, these really are very beautiful works.

Very clever. Have to admit, it looks like it should be a very long jigsaw puzzle; one that's quite tricky!
