This made me think of plaid, which made me think of plaids, tartans & my Scottish roots. Though my family is actually a sept of the clan MacNeil, meaning we spell our name slightly differently, all else remains the same. The clan motto is "Vincere Vel Mori" in Latin or " Buaidh No Bas" in Gaelic, which translates to Victory Or Death, or the more loosely translated Conquer Or Die. There is a saying in the Highlands of Scotland that in the long genealogy of the MacNeils, the biblical Noah is not to be found. For it is said that; " The MacNeil had a boat of his own !"

I like the feeling. Has a soft almost wind like feel.... I think it would look cooler in purple and blue though... Thats just me though!

You just have a great style of your own on these. This is great, I love it. Your color choices and blending are off the hook. Design is super. Great job!

This is wonderful Lauren. I love the soft look & how the colors flow together so nicely. My hometown was founded by a Scotsman...clan McPhail. We celebrate our Scottish Heritage with many activities throughout the year. Excellent work.... I love it.

Very interesting narration, and why am I not surprised where the fiery spirit comes from!???? :)
This really amazes me, looking so real, like fabric. Hard to believe it is only fractal! Awesome!

In this is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins. 1 John 4:10
At first glance I thought this was the outline of a womans body. The colors and layout are great. I like the feeling of this a lot. Nice one.

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.
Nice image. My family is McClain.

One man sees things and says "why?", but I dream things that never were and say "why not?"
A very elegant creation my friend! So simple and so pretty! The colours are soft and just right! I'd like to see you do more of this kind of design...V

Love is not soft like water,it is hard like rock, on which the waves of hatred beat in vain.
