Capricorn Info:

The 10th sign of the zodiac, represented by a goat with crooked horns and the hind parts of a fish or dolphin. The goat symbolizes Pan, the lusty and licentious god normally portrayed as a bearded, curly-haired human with the legs, tail and horns of a goat. On plunging into the Nile to escape from the mighty Typhon, the father of dangerous winds, Pan's upper part became wholly goat but the submerged parts changed into those of a fish.

I'm glad it worked out that the 2 colors were compilmentary Colors: Blue/Orange. And, basicly that's it other than the white and Yellow/white.

The majority of the water is colored in Markers except the highlights... some of the god's tail is colored in marker, but mostly he's done with pastels.

It's very exagerated.... i actually like that about it, tho' i'm sure it won't go over well with Yerf or Epilogue.net since it's a pastel composition.
