Description *faceplants*

And thus my semi-kind-of triumphant return to DA (and Adobe) after having my baby. I swear, I don't do anything in Adobe for a month and my brain begins to rot.

Total time: Too much. I don't know how long it took me... I just know that it took a long time to find the right stocks (hours), and then took.. I don't know. Somewhere between 6-8 solid hours of manipulating/painting to slap it all together.

The manes, tails, horn, butterfly and bird were painted, along with the sky beyond the mountains. Every bit of this was touched in some way (and I do mean every last pixel), though it doesn't look like it for the most part. Which, I suppose, is the point of it in the end, huh?


This picture was done for ~Wintermagie for capturing my 10,000th pageview. I know, I'm over 15k now, but.. but.. I was busy! Having a baby is hard work.

These two are from a story she's writing, based, from what I understood, around a palo pegasus and a black unicorn who are love-bound, but nothing that will ever truly work out in the end. The white butterfly and pink bird were requested to be in there as well; the butterfly is connected to the palomino, and the bird to the unicorn. The quote is hers too - all compliments to the beautiful words goes to her, of course!

Once again, I am captivated by your work. Truly a lovely picture after your absence; I love the quote and it's such a nicely thought out image. The wings are perfectly coloured and the positions of the two horses is priceless.

Congratulations on your baby as well !

A stunning rendition, from the soft flow of the mane/tail/wings to the dark atmosphere of the landscape and the "stolen moments" You've done a beautiful job capturing the essence of a secret love that can not be. I am sure the requester is more than happy

That is the most A-M-A-Z-I-N-G piece of work I have seen. In my entire life.

It's so...real, though it also feels unreal. It's sort of hard to describe. [sighs longingly]

And that quote, I stirs me...I love it...Where did it come from? Did you make it up, or did Wintermagie?

The whole thing is stunning. [clings and never lets go]

~Wintermagie wrote the quote - she has a beautiful way with words, doesn't she?

Thank you so much for the lovely comment. It means a lot to me, honestly.

Teehee! It feels weird to be called Solly anymore. There was a chick named SollyRules that commented on one of my works... I barely resisted commenting on it when I answered her.

But thank you!! I miss you, you stinky butt.
