Description
    Catching my breath, letting it go
    turning my cheek for the sake of the show [...]

    You helped me see the beauty in everything


I still remember that joyful laugh, the laugh that told me how to smile.

I made this happy, though there is a hint of sadness in it. It's for the lovely, amazing soul that made heaven a better place. She loved morpho butterflies, and so I made one for her...I tried to make it hopeful, happy, because that's what she was. I don't think she'd want me, or anybody else, to dwell on the sadness of her departure, but on the joy of everything she created around her. I didn't want this piece to be sad. It would betray who she was. q - q

I decided this is a new character, Morphu'um. Although it may not look it, I put so much feel into this. This is probably my favourite piece. c":


Edit: this character, Morphu'um, is partly owned by ~x-3-R-R-0-R-x in the sense that she will be roleplaying her on Helovia! c:

Well..where to begin..
First of all I love the song you matched with this manip, I love how they go side by side! I'm addicted to art that has emotion put into it, it truly does make it all the more better and meaningful not only to the veiwer but the creater.
To me this seems flawless, I love the simpliest of details you put in,making it all the more better. (the butterfuly, the strands of white put in the mane/tail and even the little markings in the legs)
Beautiful work of art! <3

Aw thank you so, so much for this comment. I always love to here what people truly think about my art; I appreciate every comment but it's ones like these that make all my effort a bit more worthwhile, because I get to see how others truly see my art. Thank you so much.

gale ohmygosh, i have to agree with champagne.. this is just stunning. it's not overthetop, as you may think a blue horse would become, and you portrayed the sheer beauty of everyhing while keeping it so simple. you didn't go with stereotype either, and add wings... You didn't even need to put about the emotions in the description, I'm sure everyone who sees this can tell it means alot to you, and my thoughts go towards you and your loss, i'm here for you. I honestly think this is one of your best manipulations yet, everything is simply perfect and i swear I could spend a lifetime thinking of ways to improve it and not find a single one. you're so talented gale, and i'm glad you use that talent for good. i'm sure your loved one, whoever she may be, is looking down on you now and smiling, smiling because you made her feel remembered, loved, but not dwelled upon. i know if i was her i'd have tears of joy in my eyes 👍: 0 ⏩: 1

This is so beautiful! I have no idea how you made the BLUE horse blend it - but you did, and it's amazing! It stands out great against the green and highlights the sky.

Thank you! c: I'll be completely honest, I think it was a bit of a fluke, I don't even remember! All I remember thinking was there were three different shades of blue in the picture and it looked bad aha! But thanks so much again!

And it's dedicated to someone in my life, an old friend, who recently passed away from cancer. She was an incredible inspiration and it was a horrible shock to hear that she had finally lost her battle.

Oh my gorgie gorgie friend, this is so beautiful. Your art is always stunning and makes me feel happy and a bit jealous, to be honest. The color change is flawless and as always the mane and tail are so pretty and soft looking. Gosh honeybuns, why you so talented? OwO
