Pendant based on Gustav Klimpt's Tree of Life

I really like Klimpt's Tree of Life painting. I love all the swirls, and the way it is laid out almost like a triptych.

I included three color ways, because I thought it was very illustrative of just a few minor changes of colour can affect positive and negative space, as well as change the feel of a pattern. I think it's very important to be willing to play colours - especially in areas of the pattern you normally would leave solid and think of as background.

I especially like the colour version below:

I think the best way to wear this would be to extend the top just enough to create a self-bail.
