Description
Medium: watercolours, some acrylic.Size: A5
Mmm, cosmic jellyfish spiral...that's how the universe started I assume. There's a bit of a 'creation' theme going on here, referenced both in the title and in what the jellyfish begin to resemble as they fade away
I bet they're still out there...a single jellyfish the size of a galaxy....just floating around, chilling and such. I wouldn't mind looking out into the sky one night and seeing this 
So it's Christmas Eve: Merry Christmas! This isn't Christmas-themed in the slightest. Unless I photoshopped Santa hats onto all of them. Or if it started snowing Jellyfish tomorrow morning, in a spiralling fashion - then it'd be remarkably and pre-emptively appropriate. Wouldn't that be something... *hopes*
Anyway, I like how this turned out - hope you do too!
Merry Christmas to you all! Thanks for sticking with me for another year, despite my severe lack of updates and less-than-prolific output, lol. I will get better I promise. Follow me on Instagram: www.instagram.com/simanion

Stunning effect and the detail is brilliant fore A5. Monotones are brilliant when done well, and i love the touches of colour which help set the picture off. Awesome

Thankyou! Yeah, go for it! You can always start something and just leave it on your desk as you slowly complete it when you have time. I often do that.

You painted this?! I thought it was a photo manip! That's amazing... and I love the thought of all the stars being jellyfish, it's like outer space it just a big ocean~

An immense, infinite ocean. Oh to look up at the stars at night...it's like theres something in our brains stopping us from even contemplating the true magnitude of the universe, or else we'd explode. Jellyfish? Why not!
