I've seen many fine artists' galleries that have intro graphics on their main pages, and I liked the look and idea of them, so I made one for my own site. This "mandala", for lack of a better term, symbolizes much of what I am and what I love. I've always been obsessed with Celtic knotwork, Art Nouveau (Alphonse Mucha's works in particular), Medieval heraldry and carousel art, and so I've tried to combine all these styles into one. My fursona and otherkin/totem creature is of course Swandog (swan/saluki gryphon), with a hidden unicorn side (thus the alicorn/horn in the center) and a separate luna moth side (which has since been combined with the unicorn). I'm also a nocturnal person and love pastel colors, ivy, waterlilies, pearls, seashells, stars, the moon, ribbons, tassels, spirals, feathers and wings. And being a Christian, I've included a Chi Rho symbol as well. The ivy border and wings were borrowed from my favorite of Mucha's images, and the knotwork was inspired by this awesome artist.
Oh holy crap O_O
That's just awesome. The colouring, the pose, the knots and the .. whole piece. Everything of it is simpy too awesome. The amount of detail is just stunning xE *dies* Simply a very lovely piece. That border is just GORGEOUS, reminds me a little of something made of stained glass.
Oh, and I cleaned my room yesterday, I actually found a pink shell looking almost excatly like that one xD
That is absolutely gorgeous detail work!
Brilliant! I haven't the patience for such things. ^_^

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
