Yours, Mine and Ouroboros

by Henry

Just when he thought he was out, they pulled him back in. The Ouroboros, that is, anAlphabeast with an acute fascination with the deliciousness of his own tail. Often depicted as as serpent or, as here, a dragon feasting away on his own hinder quarters, the Ouroboros is an ancient symbol of the cyclical nature of the Universe and of alchemy and very possibly donuts. Oh, a wagon wheel!

    Whoa, Henry, the colors and composition on this are fabulous, as well as his expression. The Ouroboros reminds me of the Norse Jormungandr. These are my favorite colors of yours on this project so far. It really hits you in the face. Keep up the awesome work, Hank!!
