  9. well this was an easy vote. only one entry here IMHO expresses the theme really. I'd really like to see more litteral expressions of our themes. lately it is really sorta far to find how the piece relates to the theme. but maybe im just a big winch. each piece on its own is stunning though. :)

  10. I found it very hard to choose, as I think there are lots of pieces here that express all sorts of animal instincts - but then I'm not a very literal-minded beader and I like the way everyone brings an individual interpretation to the themes!
    Beautiful work, everyone!

    The different interpretations and expression of the theme is what really excites me every month. This is the quality of art and what makes it interesting.
