I have decided to try some new things, to go boldly where I have never gone before in mixing up colors and shadows and highlights... and in just letting myself design on the theme of color for a minute. I always have some theme in mind when I design, or some look I am trying to achieve. Today I sat down and just let my mouse do the walking and see what it came up with. Now I want to share it with you. I started with a mauve background and used a scattered bursh and burn and dodge tools and viola...
I wonder... what is good about this and what could I do better? Please leave some honest critiques in my comments today if you have a moment! These experiments are to help me become a better designer. And you can only benefit from that!

A Beautiful Quote I read today:
That which God said to the rose, and caused it to laugh in full-blown beauty, he said to my heart, and made it a hundred times more beautiful. -Jalai ed-Din Rumi

Thanks! Love the variation of the colors & how they kind of bleed into each other.
