Description
This is my interpretation for βs hero contest. (update: it won 2nd place 
thank you very much!)Theme: And then a hero comes along, with the strength to carry on,
And you cast your fears aside, and you know you can survive. (M.Carey)
A hero can be anyone⦠a friend, a lover, a family member, or even a total stranger. It is someone who is there for you when you need it the most. Someone to protect you, someone who is by your side.
And when you have found your personal hero, the world just seems to be a better place.

Photomanipulation & digital painting (Corel PhotoPaint)The man is almost completely painted. This is the first time that i have included a male figure, so if you notice anything that could be approved please tell me.

thank you very much for your comment
originally i planned to use your stock photo as a large part of the background but it distracted from the figures. but i still included the branches of it
now i have worked with your stock photos again for another art piece and i will use them again in the future.

again, good imagination and idea, but it looks again like u cut it from the newspapers and put one to another, try with photoshop and use some cool tutorials and I know that then your works gonna rock!
P.S. Soory if u think that I don't like your works, they are amazing, but u need a little more practice with photo manipulation and stuff like that. And again, I hope to talk more with u on next devmeeting.

for most of my art i use Corel Photopaint, which is probably similar to photoshop. but i have heard photoshop is better.
hmm, what do you think looks cut out about it? maybe i could have blended her hair and skirt better into the picture. but most of it is painted here and not just cut&
this was actually one of my most time consuming images and contains less flaws than the others.
