Kevin's Gui (life comes from life)

I finished this one in my last semester at college.
It's done in the memory of Kevin Young. I miss him :( I still haven't gotten over the suddeness of it all.

Anyhow, to explain it's his Gui /chi/.

I chose fire as his element. Fire was chosen because of Kevin's personality and energy. He was seldom in bad moods, always upbeat and optimistic and extremely generous. I think he was probably one of the best people I ever knew.

But as his personal stream of Gui ran out it did not dissapear- instead new life springs from old life, this time in many more earthy elements, although they will change they grow stronger and take on more life.

The tidbits seen around his Gui are to represent us, his friends and family. Who moved along beside him for so long, but now we go forth without him. However his memory is reflected in us because he meant so much to a lot of us.

This was scanned in six peices, so it's lost a lot. The full size is about 36"x9"
