I think this is great. Is it Japanese Feng Shui. I think this would be a great ornament to have on your wall for health, wealth and happiness.

Personally, I would have rathered to see something else besides wealth in the center of your piece. I love the vivid orange frame...orange being my favorite color. Excellent piece. Will this hang in a gallery as well?

I love the idea of making your own frame, that adds more heart to the piece. I like the colors too. Do you know the characters for DRAGON? I used to know, but after I while of not using it I've forgotten. All I remember is there is 43 strokes in the character.

Wealth, Eternity and Perfection: these are what any one would want to own forever.
But very rare when all three shower their graces simultaneously.
The background, a blend of orange, blue,green, yellow and perhaps pink is nicely9For lack of imagination) execution.
The hexagonal smbols are not real dark black but have a hazy look about them.
The frame somehow does not please me.
I mean, i make my own frames too and it is nice you have framed it urself but the orange colour take the focus off the main piece.
A black or honey brown or golden yellow would have been better.
Well done!

All your pieces maintain balance and wisdom within its lines of expressive creativity. What is most striking to me is the offset of the marblized texturing to soften the defined lines of the symbols of seven. This picture truly embraces the atmosphere that brings riches to that title. The language of your lettering style is penned with such elegance and flow.
