Description

I took a seminar on medieval cosmology this semester, and since we talked about some depictions of the zodiac signs in art, I wanted to do a painting of a startsign with accurate stars. I don't how accurate these are, but nobody's gonna notice, right?

Before you ask: no, I won't do the other signs, even though I enjoyed this one.

Watercolour, acrylics and bits of gold paint, various lose references of lions and starlit skies used.
I like acrylics. They work well with watercolour. They also scan better. The scan ist still brighter than the original painting, at least on my screen. I didn't dare to meddle with the brightness in photoshop, though, as I was afraid to spoil it on YOUR screens. Wish I could see it there.
