About my design

by Dxtr
"In the Dreamtime all earth lay sleeping. Nothing moved. Nothing grew. One day the Rainbow Serpent awoke from her slumber and came out from under the ground.



She travelled far and wide and eventually grew tired and curled up and slept. She left marks of her sleeping body and her winding tracks. Then she returned to the place where she had first appeared, and called to the frogs, “Come out!”



The frogs came out slow because their bellies were heavy with water, which they had stored in their sleep. The Rainbow serpent tickled their stomachs and when the frogs laughed, water ran all over the earth to fill the tracks of the Rainbow serpents’ wanderings. This is how lakes and rivers were formed.



With water, grass and trees sprang up. Also all animals awoke and followed the rainbow serpent across the land. They were happy on earth and each lived and gathered food with his own tribe. Some animals live in rocks, others on the plains and others in trees and in the air."



Thanks for stopping by. Hope you like this.

Great work dxtr. $5 all the way.

So many details I love the tiny humming birds especially a lovely touch.



antoniog417 when you leave a comment try to check you are not making yourself look like an idiot? I always find if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything - but for you I am making a special exception!



Did you miss the Snakes, Tortoises, birds, lizards?



Commentards...

I dont like this one that much because there is too much going on, and nothing seems to standout or be emphasized. it all blends in too much.

^ Chengui is right... almost too much detail here. Someone walking by wouldn't be able to tell what it is at all I think.



please critique me!
