Here is just a quick study for Temple of the Flame. It does not really have any context right now since the idea was conceived trying to work out the different temples for a city I am working on, Gelikall. I ended up going with a different design for the temple, so this is just floating in the aether of unattached ideas.

I was trying to create visual tension by intentionally offsetting and mis-aligning some stuff. I feel that I had some success, but I think there is more tension due to a scale issue, where I have some very fine detail and some very large movements, but no real medium-level action.
