Emerald-Eyed Tiger and Serpent

Description

A fierce, emerald-eyed tiger leaps forward, jaws open, while a teal serpent coils behind it along the arm. Rendered in a Japanese-influenced, neo-traditional style with bold lines and saturated color, the piece flows down the forearm. The tiger symbolizes strength, courage, and protection; the snake often represents transformation, wisdom, and resilience. Together they suggest balance between raw power and calculated cunning.
