A phoenix is a mythical firebird with a colorful plumage and a tail of gold and scarlet symbolizing rebirth.

This artwork is a mixed media creation with gold acrylic paint, embossed decorative paper, oil pastels, woodless colored pencils, marker pens, paint pens and black sharpie on Canson watercolor paper. Original measures about 12.5×19 inches.

This scan does not really do the picture justice as it does not pick up the metallic golds used throughout the image.

I like how this phoenix is reminiscent of celtic knotwork.

Buy coincidence, my very first solo exhibition was at the Phoenix Theatre Forum here in Blyth ... so I like the phoenix bird :) As you may know from Redbubble I LIKE ALL YOUR WORK.

Mmm, that's very nicely done! I like how you posed the phoenix- there's good flow to it.

However, as a critique, the lower left hand corner of the picture is bothering me, for some reason. It seems to empty while the rest of the picture is full of motion and pattern.

Keep up the creative art!
