Description
Get it? Because it's of Celeste and things are glowing?Haaah, so clever.
The butterflies were a big pain in my rear. c: I've never been that good at drawing butterflies and then I just had to have them glowing. Haha. My husband walks over to me and says, "They're fireflies caught in that bluish-black thing." (If you don't get the reference, watch more Disney. c: ) I like how it turned out though! The sky took way longer than it could have as I started out coloring it with a gray colored pencil (as I've lost track of my black one...) and then I just painted over that with black watercolor (which I think might be cheating) and after that I decided to just do the trees with paint too. c: I used to hate watercolor paints, but I've outgrown that in my latest years. Haha.
I really noticed how many things were wonky with the original line art [link] once I started to color it. I think I'm much better with color than I am with drawing (though I'm not yet a pro with either). Still, in spite of everything, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Been spending all of this week off and on with this baby (too many light sources) and I'm glad to be done. XD

Sometimes. Haha. I haven't taken a request for years, as I've been pretty inactive. I'd be willing to talk about about a request in a Note, though. c: And thank you!

Traditional mediums are so much more difficult to handle than digital art. There's no undo button, no true way to erase, and its hard to get the colors just so. That being said, I really admire your coloring here! It's rich and depicts glow which can be very hard to do in the traditional medium! I love it! Truly, I love it ;-; Thank you, this couldn't have come at a better time!

Thank you. <3 And you're welcome. c: I would be willing to mail you the original piece, if you'd like, though I wouldn't be able to until late March at the earliest.
