Description My entry for the Wacom "Dreams" contest.

This is me and my wonderful wife. It's 35 years or so down the road. We've gone on adventures, we've raised a family, and here we are sipping some wine, enjoying each others company and enjoying life. We're taking in a nice evening on our patio overlooking our private beach. I can't wait.

My wife subtitled it "Lottery Winnings"

Thanks. We aged really well No, I see what you're saying, I could have maybe aged us a bit more. I went back and forth on that a bit. Hopefully I got the feeling of a newly retired couple across, though.

Hiyum [2009-12-08 08:09:46 +0000 UTC]

That is absolutely beautiful.
I love how you controlled the colors so well and the painterly feeling you get from it. Its great seeing how you can transition from an abstract stroke in the background to the clean, fine detail on the feet. This is such an awesome piece! Keep it up (:

benjaminclair In reply to Hiyum [2009-12-08 19:39:45 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Drawing focus through varying my strokes and the amount of detail is something I've been working on. Glad you like it!
