Description
This painting ate my life for nearly a week. I originally wanted to do a phoenix-fire theme, and Valance volunteered for the part, but it turned into a sunset along the way (which I like better). It gave me a chance to practice with water and backlighting, two things I've had endless trouble with in the past. The result came out surprisingly well, though Valance doesn't deserve the attention. *whaps him* I'm hoping this doesn't show up too dark for most monitors.You can see the original pencil piece here: www.deviantart.com/deviation/2…

I really love the coloring, and if you zoom in and look at the water under his wings near is feet, it kind of looks like clouds!

To me a week is very short. I am surprised you could do it that quick. Time is relative and personal I suppose. Anyway this is beautiful.

Saw this on elfwood, and I loved it so much that I just had to search for it here so I could Favorite it! The lighting is supercalifradgiesticexpialodcious. 'Amazing' doesn't cover it.

I know you probably get this a lot, and for good reason, but yeah... I love your style and am very jealous of how well you did those wings. I love the color and lighting effect in this piece especially. It's kinda hard to tell if the outstretching landscape is ocean or clouds, but either way, I feel that it adds to the mysteriousness of the image.
~good luck with all you do

The wings are beautiful. When I look at them I feel like I can feel there mucules on my back, the wieght of them. Like they are stretching out. The picture is really intense....I can feel it see.
I have a really vivid imagination sorry.

It's brilliant! You did a very nice job on the light on both water and wings, looks so warm and... maan, it's actually giving me goosebumps!

*Staring* I love it... It makes me feel all warm, like I'm in the sun (and kinda sleepy, too. Bedy-bye). Your water and backlighting came out awesome, as did everything else, no worries there. I have nothing against Valence since I don't know about him yet, lol. He's cool. *Hesitantly hands him a band-aid*
Awesome job. ^___^
