The Jain's Death and Rebirth in Water Colours

After reading "The Jain's Death", a comic suggested earlier today by @RussSharek, I wanted to paint two scenes from it.
Page 26, depicting a tiger hidden among jungle foliage at night, and page 45-g, showing some kind of a geothermal energy explosion or eruption, stood out the most to me. They also both had a limited hue palette, and were quite contrasting, which suited me well as I have been wanting to try a couple of fairly #monochromatic paintings in preparation for #huevember, after seeing @dona's huevember creation.

So, I hope you will enjoy my #painting The Jain's Death and Rebirth in Water Colours.

A water colour pad lying on a table, surrounded by decorative things.
The A5 pad contains two water colour paintings side by side, in contrasting colours.
On the left is a fiery energy eruption; a white-hot pillar of energy in the middle, with a golden, orange plasma ball in the middle, and orange-red flames shooting out towards the edges.
On the right is a cold blue and black night scene of a tiger stalking in a thick jungle. You can barely make out its head, striped upper body, and claws; its golden eyes however are piercing through through the night, locked onto you, and it's obvious this predator can clearly see you.

To the right of the art pad is a tin box with 12 half pans of water colour paints, various well-used mixing compartments, and a set of three brushes resting on top of it. Its lid is resting against a tea glass which contains golden brown tea.
Above the pad is a mirror which reflects the paintings and part of the water colour paint half pans.
To the left of the mirror is a glass of water with some mint and wild flowers resting in it.
