amazing composition and textures, love the almost tribal feel to it... very alien and strangely wondeful

Based on theme this is my favorite as well. How do I get a hold of an original before you hit the big time and I've got to auction a kidney?

This is a great piece.It really flows together nicely, the dragons look cool,like their sneaking in on her and are up to no good at all lol.The Angel looks so sweet and innocent with a beautiful aura around her ,also confident that the girl on the bed will choose the right path,the reasonable path.. In other words the angel has complete faith in the girls capacity to do good.Nice work man.
