SPOLIT LIL BRATS I gots a new piece. Revel in its' sceintificness and intellect for it truly smacks your brain around. Oooh squishy. This description has been effortlessly copied and pasted from my homepage, because I am truly a lazy ass.

Anyway -- I really am proud of this; it's the first of four pieces of the same dimensions.

Okay, I looked at the picture again after leaving the last comment and saw something else. I may be totally running away with this, but if the top is space, then all the little dark blue twisty sections sure do seem like spacetime being twisted about by gravity!
AAAH! Physics is taking over my life! o.O

:-) Laura Russell replies: "That's EXACTLY it!!!!!! You have nailed my exact thought process on that one :]"

Yea for physics!
I like this one too...especially how you made it a long, thin, vertical piece - very fitting for gravity. ^.^ It's almost as if she's either defying gravity with that pose or she's being pulled/stretched by it. I love the subdued colors and, of course, the detail. The hints of water at the bottom is neat too.
Huh, I just realized something. Since there's water at the bottom, is the design at the top supposed to represent space? Looking at the thumbnail down here, the picture makes me think of a little sliver of the Earth's atmosphere (with water/land at the bottom and the vastness of space above).

:-) Laura Russell replies: "That's totally it; the bottom of the piece is stable - no 'gaps' in space-time. You get to the top - in deep space - and the mysteries of space-time / gravity are revealled :]"
