Artist's Comments
For *SilverFlameWanderer's competition
"The counterpart of the unicorn was the lion. Both were seen as the kings of all animals and once the sounds of their clashes echoed in the woods. How the lion came to Europe to actually be heard in the woods, appears to be another mystery. Some time later, when the Unicorn represented the Spring and the Lion stood for the Summer, the end of their clashes was said to influence the seasons of the year. Where, in symbolism, the Lion represents the urge to impose one's idea of order upon the world, the Unicorn stands for the drive to bring harmony through insight and understanding. Often their effects are identical but the contrary approaches tend towards strife. When the Lion and Unicorn are working in harmony towards the same goal, no other creature can withstand them because they represent a union of opposites." - [link] I came across this myth about the battle between the Unicorn and the Lion denoting the changing seasons some years ago, sadly I cannot find the page the information was on from then, but I have found references to the same information. The idea is that the Unicorn is Winter and the Lion is summer, when the lion is winning the world is warm, and when the Unicorn is winning the world is cold. Therefore this image represents both Summer and Winter EDIT: Watermarked now that the contest is over, as always. OMG! It WON! *Dances* I almost didn't enter this, I thought it was way off the mark, but I shrugged my shoulders and went ahead with it any way. Wander over to *SilverFlameWanderer's journal and check out the competition! It's a wonder I got anywhere, the entries were so good. |

I bought a cactus. A week later it died. And I got depressed, because I thought, Damn. I am less nurturing than a desert.

Like as a Lyon whose imperial powre
A proud rebellious Unicorn defyes,
T'avoid the rash assault and wrathful stowre
Of his fiers foe, him to a tree applyes,
And when him ronning in full course he spyes
He slips aside: the whiles that furious beast
His precious home, sought of his enemyes,
Strikes in the stocke, ne thence can be releast,
But to the mighty victor yields a bounteous feast.

An unsettling element in modern art is the common fear of an immature ego. The fear doing what has been done before. Art is creating something unique despite the possibility of failure and repetitiveness
