#ying yang
I started this challenge to move people toward eating more veggies and less animals products. But I don’t want you to push you into orthorexia or an unhealthy relationship with food driven by guilt and sadness.
Find a healthy balance between your ideals and your own happiness :

Ying
Yin Yang Jem Carstairs
Let me explain this card like I did for Will’s.
Thankfully I was able to finish this in time for Jem’s birthday even though I’m posting this late as hell.
The Yang shows his passion for music. I used Tartini’s “The Devil’s Trill” in the background because it reminded me of him at certain points of his life. The violin and his cane are also there.
The additional parts are the Carstairs symbol, which is a castle or a tower. The silver box, and the jade pendant he gave Tessa.
The Yin side shows the darker and sad part of his life caused by the Yin Fen. The red chains symbolize the restraint the drug has affected him as he cannot grow old, marry, and have kids and he has accepted that his life was going to be short, therefore he cut every desire or chance to get those things because he would part sooner than later.
This took a while because I was between projects and I got too stressed. (You’d be surprised how much I insulted him and the other stuff. Art makes me so aggressive for my perfectionist ass.)
Anyways, the next one in line will be Tessa. But I think I’ll start her mid-late November, latest early December.
Yin Yang Will Herondale
Here I am with a new project in hands. Let me explain:
What I want to do is create Yin and Yang cards. Yin is the unknown side while Yang is the known side.
In here we have Will. The Yang shows his love for reading and literature while the Yin has cracked glass and chrysanthemums which represent the curse. (Chrysanthemum symbolizes death).
On the other hand, I added the Wales dragon and a heron to represent the Herondale family.
This will be a long process because I will go through many of the important characters in the chronicles and I will do it chronologically from TID to TDA.
This thing took about three days and I’ve never done anything like this before so I’m proud of the results with what I can do at the moment.
The next on on the list is Jem.
