"I belive I'm worth coming home to"; this is so beautiful, and the swans link it to the Venus/ Santa persona Tori brought out the next year.

It's just not easy to find a fault in your drawings. And, so far, it's still the same.
The butterflies, and the woman's happy and calm expression are just superb. And the delicate feeling is amazing, too. All the details and soft colours make me want to weep. Wow. Man, I just cannot get tird of your works.

I really love this piece. It has a very dream like quality to it. Your use of colour and image is fantastic! I just love looking at all of your work, each piece is so beautiful and vibrant. I love the butterflies in this one, especially the ones that are all on the branch. At first they look like leaves, but they are actually butterflies when you zoom in. Just amazing work
