Description
Pushing Daisies fanart!!! Because I love it so <3 Makes meh giggle. I've never drawn these characters before and I love them already! Might do some more of 'emSpent about 3 and a half hours painting it, trying to make it look as lush as possible. Haven't spent that long on any picture for AGES but it's been fun XD
Done with a mixture of watercolours, acrylics and markers, and had to do some digi enhancing to counteract the scanner degrading. I really needed the characters to POP, especially Chuck's dress - so I used the markers as a base for that. But I couldn't use them on Ned because there's another sketch on the back of the page which I wanna keep, and they would have seeped through terribly. So he looked kinda pasty - enter Photoshop! and ta-da. The real one looks better than this one.
Was looking through the sketchbook I've been using since May, which I wanted to make interesting. So I've been trying to do different pictures, a mixture of fanart and original stuff with colour and overflowing pages etc. And it was going okay for a couple of months, but it's been getting boring and repetitive again.
So I wanted COLOUR! And the Daisies happened cuz I'm in need of a bit of brightening up.
Sorry bout the masses of text! I haven't spoken to anybody for 5 hours....

wow..
you did a great job of honoring the style of the show. the way the background is so vivid, yet the characters still pop.. fantastic.
i just had myself a Pushing Daisies marathon today (came home early from school for fear of fainting), so take it from someone with nothing but PD on the brain right now - This Is Amazing.

Beautiful piece.
Everything is so colorful and vivid and lively.
I specially love the background. the amount of work you put in it really shines.
and I like how the characters are in the spotlight while one can enjoy the background.
just like Pushing Daisies

Love Pushing Daisies, and love the art.
I especially love the way you portray Chuck, and her dress. XD
