„Infinite Rebirth”

”The idea is to tell a story with symbols and color. The skulls represent loss and are in primary colors. The flowers represent life and are in secondary colors. The girl is the element that represents life experience she is represented in tertiary colors. With the use of colors and symbols I mean to say the end is beginning.” – CoolDiscoRich
