Taoist Dragons and Moon Phases
OK, another weird one. This design combines symbols i found on a long scroll in a Taoist art text. The central image is the ying and yang symbols conjoined with the seed, or the meditator in the middle, surrounded by the phases of the moon. The pai of dragons were done from an image from the public domain, as it’s way over mingtees’ drafting abilities. The white circle with a dot in the middle is a stylized pearl. No doubt this will require some serious revision, but for now i figured i’d just toss it out there.

I love it in the yellow ochre…..the design really pops then…
mingtees replied
Thanks Janis! I’m going to give it a tweak and then see if it may work on some more colors. I’m just never sure how things are actually going to print with transparency on darker colors.

Not weird at all!!! This is very symbolic. I see your most of your work has circles or a form of a circle…..
I love that….Everything is connected :))
mingtees replied
Thanks so much! As for the circles – it seems to be in a lot of the Chinese and Japanese art and design i look at, and it fits well on a teee. So that’s probably why!

niceness :D
mingtees replied
thanks! And for the fave! If i knew about this tutorial on how to use Illustrator and patterns, i could have maybe even drawn the dragons with scales all by myself instead of raiding the public domain.
