NOTE: If anyone is interested, prints can be made available for this pic. I will not be using the dA print service though; I will post from my own home:
LARGE (a little smaller than an A4 page) = $10 AU MEDIUM (half an A4 page) = $6 AU SMALL (approx. 4 x 5) = $4 AU
Yes I'm alive, blame uni work for my absence, fie fie to the education system! <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_lick.gif" align="middle" alt=" (Lick)" title=" (Lick)" border="0" /> Ahem. ^.^;; Well, I finally got around to completing this - I started it about two weeks ago, and it's been sitting around on my desk for ages until I finished it today.... <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_lick.gif" align="middle" alt=" (Lick)" title=" (Lick)" border="0" /> well anyway, er, this was my attempt at trying to do a different take on how I usually draw Phoenixes, it's mildly depressing I know but eh, not even the life of a Phoenix is all sugar and roses, right?? ^.^;;; The inking near killed me again, or rather, nearly killed my pencil and my colour pencils smelled funny after not using them for ages, but it all came together in the end. Now I reeeeaaaallly need to finish pics I owe to people.... O____o;;; and maybe get a diary entry in too..... Mediums used in case anyone's interested - prismacolour pencils for the phoenix, ink for the black strands and paintshop pro 5 background. And er, that's it I guess...
This is gorgious Zen and actually, although I hate to say this, it really reflects how I'm feeling right now. I simply need a little freedom from everything, kind of like your phoenix does.
Although, even if I didn't feel that way, I'd still favourite this simply because it is beautiful and show talent on your part. I hope you don't strech yourself to fair over the next little while with pressures and due dates. Anyway, great work and definitely a new favourite for me.

Wow! Another beautiful job Zen! Your style works so well with phoenixes O_O! The lighting is amazing again and that black stuff looks really cool. Feel sorry for the poor birdy (oh crap, I almost sent it though and it said "poo birdy" x_x)

There are a lot of themes that run through the stock gallery many people have similar ideas but they pull them off in different ways. In this series of newsletters we will look at similar ideas but different outcomes.
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
