Fire and Ice II
A flame bird resplendent facing an angry ice giant. I started with a few similar shapes and then looked for features the popped out at me and pursued the picture from there.

Now you’re talking! I think these shapes, when given colour are really thought provoking. Try squinting your eyes, everyone, then let your imagination wander. This is SO LIKE an exercise I remember doing, as a child, in art class at school. I remember filling in boxes, on graph paper, starting at the centre of the page then working outwards. The only condition was that the final design had to be symmetrical in all directions. I remember loosing myself when doing this as the snow fell silently outside. It was a Friday afternoon in December 1959. Your post has brought back a wonderful memory. Thank you.
