The State of a Mind...

Idea by Gemma Fricker
Execution by me =')

~~

So this one time, Gemma was telling me about an idea she'd had for an image, and I really liked it, so I asked if I could draw it...

In case you need help reading the image: it's a tiger (Chinese astrology) trapped in a cage which is too small, on a stormy sea, failing to catch the mocking Pisces-fish.

You know how you can sometimes chart an artist's development over the course of many drawings? Well, in this, you can see me getting to grips with Inkscape over the course of a single drawing...
...And it does rather bug me that the last parts I drew (i.e. the texture of the tiger's fur) make the early parts (sea and sky) look really sparse. I might even go back to it one day.


Like I've mentioned, this was drawn entirely in Inkscape [link] so yes, it's all vectors...

I welcome crit - be as harsh as you like...
