I think this one is my favorite of the elements so far as well. The colors are fantastic, and this fractal feels like a work of art, as well as a watercolor painting.
I especially like the greens and coppery browns here.
It's scary how many of those things I identify with. I've always known Earth was my element, but you brought up a few things I've never heard associated with earth.
(Seriously, I'm a Taurus/Tiger, I love the sound of drums, the feel and look of animal fur, coins\ (wish I had more in my collection of foriegn coins...), I wear a pentacle, milk is my second favorite drink after rootbeer, I design and make jewelry, and I collect and carve bones, wood, and stone. I also have as many herbs as I can possibly keep alive in pots on my porch.)
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

Years are like fractals. The more you've seen of them, the more you appreciate the details of each one, rather than how many you've seen.
