Well, I'm shocked. Its been so long since
I have won a contest I started to think I lost my touch. The design
was inspired by the sketches from Viper. His animal based sketches
gave me an idea to use an animal skull. This shape allowed me to
get away from the geometric design trap I found my self in. I let
the design flow trying to pull out the elements of the skull while
not just copying it. Jamie Seymour has always said my stuff was
too geometric and I hope this design shows I can do soft flowing
designs.
