It doesn't ruin it, but I bet if you inked in the original pencil sketch so that it would be pure black and white it would look even better. But then that could just be me, I always prefer chiaroscuro in art. You know, major light/dark contrasts.

The original was sketched on notebook paper with lines. I used adobe photo to remove them. 
But I can probably use the plain copy to try different things with. Nice ideas from you & Drgn.

Status: offline 		The paintings are very beautiful, CC. At first, they appear to be dark, but as you look at them you can see the brightness in each one of them & it overpowers the dark. Please give your wife all the TGV kudos for us & tyvm for sharing them.

I'm the artist of the paintings that CC submitted.  My thoughts on the above is that there is a sense of heaven and hell theme.  I think if you just color it in warm and cool , it would be more dramatic like water and fire.  Water being blue, green, and yellow and fire being red, orange, and yellow.  make the color intensity as pure without any saturation.

When I get the re-work done, I'll post it again of course.
Maybe I can theme it with my book somehow...
