Here are two versions of the same painting. The first one was done a few years ago, when I was still trying to figure out my style. Three ladies from three ancient civilizations get together for tea. Greek, Mayan and Egyptian:

I'm curious to know what my readers and fellow artists think: which version works better? Please reply and let me know. :-D I don't usually revisit previous paintings, but I wanted to rework this one and I like both of them.

The Kemeti are loosely based on the ancient Egyptian and Mayan civilizations, as evidenced by their architecture. They are mentioned in the short story "Wood" in "Five Elemental Dragons: Cycle One" as neighbors of the Shinwai. The Kemeti feature heavily in the sequel to the "Five Elemental Dragons" Cycles, "Shadow of the Goddess" (Summer 2012).
