Lovely pattern of curves here. I see what you mean about the owl for sure.
It seems a bit grainy. You might consider rendering this with better quality settings, though I always find it hard to tell from the tiny preview in Gimp what a flame will look like.
I don't know how long you've been experimenting with flames but I only see one other in your gallery, so I'm guessing this is a fairly early attempt. If so, you've done a reasonable job with this. It's a bit ordinary but that's the tough thing about learning - you're discovering anew what others have already done. Inevitable, I think. Keep at it and you will soon be churning out drama as fast as anybody.
Oh, and when you do - let me know how. I can't figure out how to get Gimp's flame plugin to produce anything at all interesting. This? Perhaps. But 'New Life'? No idea how you found that one in there!
