The title is from "The Rose of Battle" by W.B. Yeats; I'm not sure if I like it so if anyone has an alternate title idea, please let me know. I am open to suggestions!!!

Nice composition. I like how it looks like watercolour paints dissolving into the paper.

Thanks! I was surprised it turned out so well; it was just a random project I started because I was bored, and I didn't really spend much time on it. But I really liked the outcome, so I decided to post it here.
Thanks! :)

Yay! I love the antique map texture! Great use of color too! :D

Thanks! :hug: Like I said, I didn't really plan this one out, so it was sort of a coincidence that the colors actually went together. But I think they looked a lot better after I added the textures and the overlays -- that really brought out some colors and toned others down and I think it ended up creating a nice effect.

Mmm, I'm loving this. :) So old fashioned like! Very nice colors and textures. It has a nice feel, like an old postcard.

Nicely done.
