Spiral Moons

I'm just loving these moons probably cuz I'm such a sucker for spirals. Makes me wish my moons were more ornate.

Goddess Hand

This is another one of those I've had in my documents for a while, so I don't know where it came from. But it's gorgeous! I love the spirals and the use of color. Funny, it reminds me of something but I can't decide what.
