The mix of abstract, geometrical and nature forms, even the black and white reminds me of Art Nouveau as well as of Art Deco. A modern version of it anyway.
I like it a lot. The whole picture seems to be in motion. The flow of lines and forms is very intriguing as the change of positive and negative [black and white]. A very creative piece.

Beautiful dynamic patterns, I love the black and white. It makes you really see the patterns and how they relate. I like how some ofthe leaves are white and some are black they seem to come forward and recede depending on the whether they are black or white. Theres a nice depth to this, almost looks like a wave with all the circular patterns. Has a very nice initial impact and nice compostion.

This is great Shawn as you know that I love black/white work.It's a wicked,wild floral like design with tons of spinning movement.This work would look really cool in a very large sized canvas print.Hey,I spent a whole twent four hours in first place!!
WOW!!

    I noticed that. LOL! Thank you for the fiver and beautiful comments, Angel. I agree with you on the large canvas, but had to post it too small in here. A couple people mentioned it would be better with color, in my opinion, it would have been way too busy. Besides, I love B&W, and it's hard to do a piece of B&W art if you add a lot of color. LOL. Sounds reasonable to me!! Another thing, if someone doesn't understand this type of art, why review it and say that they gave a low score because they don't know what the heck it is???? Duh! Doesn't "twister" mean "tornado?" This year I'm just going to be doing what I like to do, and probably very few of them, so go Angel go! Again, thank you!! :)shawn

Very pretty design and has lots of action and motion to it. With the leaves, I would like to see some color to it, perhaps some warm earth tones. Lovely play with the shapes and good use of two dimensional design. Thanks for sharing.

What an imaginative creation. Looks like this twister picked up a few maple leaves along the way. I like the black and white, and the way the swirls draw your eyes to the centre. Very creative.

This is of course creative, original and extremely well composed and executed but I think it would be even more so had you done it in color. Just my opinion-preference. Thanks for sharing it!

I love the designs in this.
There's just something very modern about anything in straight black and white.
Love the detail here, black leafs, white leafs, the lines and curves and circles.
There is a lot going on here and all comes together for an interesting image.
Thanks for sharing.
