They might like dark places but not something waterlogged like you've depicted here. It needs to be cool and dark.
Since you've shown all the other starsigns as progressive individuals in some sense, I feel like you've been unfair to the Scorpio in showing such a petty depiction that is just raw and meaningless.
I'm a Scorpio. Can you tell
And it seems like the artist has put a lot of thought into the expression in the piece. The Scorpio isn't giving anything away even in a portrait that's meant to display the basics and desires of the sign. Although, the tail of her dress does seem to give something away- that although the Scorpio is keeping the man as a slave, she's also put a barrier between the onlooker and her captive, thus revealing that she can be very protective even of those she perceives herself as manipulated or using for her own benefit.
Also, though it is generally very dark, the centered light at the top of the piece may suggest that a Scorpio typically may not completely enclose themselves in darkness, but that the "real" them lies underneath the light surface of appearances. Well, that's one interpretation anyway.
I think it's a lovely piece! The more you stare at it, the more complex it becomes. It's very interesting!! c:
I actually thought about how Scorpio could have been better represented and I thought of a lady with a more dark and penetrating look, and wearing some kind of black leather (with or without softer fabrics flowing out from underneath. The sting in her dress looks great.). Black heavy shackles is held dangling from her hand. She's stepping out of what might seem to be a "nest" of dry grass (or selenite crystal whatever), into a still and dark lake, against a moonlit sky.
Your female modeling is perfect. You have drawn her to be very dark and attractive. You have such a mastery of dark flesh tones with shade and shadow without obscuring the subject's features. Sorry, but dark flesh tone artistry is an uncommon talent. Her look reminds me of an Aisha Taylor type. Your male modeling is excellent. His muscles and shape are well formed and alluring... gotta love that wrap-around cloth, showing his leg and upper booty tattoo. I mean that cloth looks ready to fall off whenever! The placement of his hand on her hip is so hot... a great composition all around.
Few art pieces make me stop and stare, but this one sure does.
