The Tree of Life

You may have seen the beautiful lines for this piece over in Tom's gallery already, and if you haven't you're gay HAHAHAHA. Serious, he's a kickass artist and deserves some love. Anyway, as you can see, I made two versions of this. The first one focuses more on rendering, whereas the weight of the second lies in the color choices and contrast alone, which I was aiming to make as saturated, and as inyourface as possible.
