Like water my friend

wow, before i say anything else, i want to say look how far i've come. in a span of a year i have learned so many new things. While it was a lot of thanks to deviantART, i had to figure out everything myself with whatever information and vague descriptions i could conjure into this deviation. There is still improvement to be done in my work and every time i feel i have reached a goal style of art i am moved along to another destination. Maybe i will find the height of my skill or I'll continue onwards to wherever the inspirational current takes me, bending me, flexing my technique, forever changing yet still the same...like water my friend, like water.

Well this was done as avi art on gaia for 80k the most I've been paid to do a single work. the theme was to be flowing with magic and mystery, but the theme changed to be a representation by the catch phrase of a long forgotten game "dangerous as one, deadly together" The characters express individuality but their movement and overlapping suggest unison and that they are one.
