And a fresh version. Dropped the wishfulfilling tree (but too clunky) and detailed the rocks and the water.

What is the actual size Fred?

I draw them on - approximately - A1. The final size is of course dependant on the client's request, although most of them do not print them smaller than A2 in order to retain the detail.
I think I like it better this way Fred

Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
As always, quite beautiful, Fred.

To my suprise I made the last Xara Outsider: http://outsider.xara.com/art/march14/. So I guess I'll upload some more pictures.

These are wonderful!
The style of shading on the rocks and leaves reminds me of traditional Japanese tattoo.
Do you construct the entire piece as one document, or draw the parts and assemble them as bitmaps at the end?
Why talkgraphics limits attached images to 800x600 is still beyond me -- do you by chance have higher resolution exports that you wouldn't mind posting?
Best,
Jesse
Thanks Jesse!
The shading is based on traditional Tibetan techniques, 'borrowed' from the Chinese - as did the Japanese, so I guess there is a connection.
The image is drawn as one document, obviously with a lot of layers.
I sure like to upload high resolution images on talkgrapgics but it's just impossible. I fear you have to resort to my FB artist page. Just follow the top link in my signature.
Congrats on the Outsider, Fred.
Don't post too high a resolution on your site, Fred. There are those who will download and sell prints of your work.
The iridescent shading of the blossom that's your Facebook profile picture is very impressive too.
I'd always had an intuition that this type of rendering was the classical art style for which Xara was best suited.
(Compared to, say, the technique of Vladimir Konstantinovic, which, while amazing in its own right, seems to be executed despite, rather than because of, the vector nature of the program.)
