Description Lame name...couldn't think of a better one.


I’ll be making about 10 prints for this picture. If you’re interested, please send me a note.
Print (will be signed as well ^^) $9
Shipping Handling $3
=$12
(money order at the moment only ><..sorry)



This started out as a doodle when I was almost bored to death in the class room. It was the second first day of school and and I were over 4 hours early for our next class. Reason is we went to school early because of drop-in figure drawing classes. (T_T…three hours of it, that’s our homework every week… it costs us $5 per drop in… homework that costs us. Who would have thought? One of the reasons why I’m going broke ever so often. Not to mention the bus pass I have to buy every month… $69. Being a college student SUCKS! I’ve been sacrificing lunch like every other day because of this… It’s like you can’t buy a decent lunch under $5 at the freaking cafeteria. So I’ve been living off vending machines lol! God Bless them.) I don’t think I should get a job either. The work load is going to stack up…I can feel it. It’s the calm before the storm.

Annnyywaaay…nuff of that rant

Like I said… it was a doodle...then I had time, so I threw a background to save myself from boredom. After, I got bored so I fell asleep on the couch.

I think this is actually the first time I did a background on Photoshop! That organic tree looking thing in the foreground took most of my patience. It was coloured three times because I was stupid enough to forget to use reference, so it was mostly done with trial and error.

The light source especially on the orbs is ambiguous because the light was supposed to becoming from within the orb. But oh well. Don’t want to make it look more like a light bulb then a gem stone.

My mom said this picture reminds her of Halloween. ^^

This piece didn’t come out the way I imagined it to be. Then again, how often does it?

Wow... the colouring is wonderful!
Definitely felt like the way your mom said!
Lol but the tree and the girl look to be.... hmm dunno how to explain it... but it seems like she's supposed to be on the same layer with the tree, but the tree was at the same time behind/front of her
Don't think that make much sense!

I like it,
you´ve done a good work with the shades and choices of color.
This one goes right in the fav-list. :fav+love:
Yeah, the name doesn´t quite fit with the pic I have to admit. :sweat:
If you ask me to name it, the closest thing I can think of is.........
"Tree of souls"...? :-/
Something like that... ^^"
Anyways, great work.

I know your pain as an Eng student... have you ever thought of making your own food to bring to school? That saves a LOT of money as I've learned. A sandwich probably won't take you too long to make... and is probably much more healthy than what you get from vending machines. I can't really afford to make anything more fancy than a sandwich myself interms of time. But it's better than coughing up 5 bucks for lunch... or only eatting every other day. Anyhow... I'm not your mother... but I suggest bringing food to school. hehehe

Anyhow... I really like your coloring though. Your character's skin color looks really pale... guess it really fits the background and probably the lighting. Seems different from your usual work hehehe. I tend to associate your name with wicked 3d renderings!
