Well, you have mentioned "blues" and "greens" and "golds"...I'm wondering how much variation in "blues" and "greens" and "golds" you have...are there 3 or 4 different hues of each available, or just one, or insanely many, or what?

Yes, that's actually what I meant...just had an image of my mind of the same scene, mirrored on both panels, but in one panel it is day and in the other panel it is night...the night panel would use darker colours, I assume. Had the idea of a tree rising up on the outside, with branches reaching into toward the centre with geometrical symbols in the branches...and in the very centre (which the branches don't quite reach, leaving an open space), the sun/moon, split between the two panels.
Have you had any good ideas of your own, yet?
