Description Art piece for my 100 Theme Challenge.

Number 005: Meian - Light & Darkness
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Very simple and I think the titles speaks for itself ^^

I've been listening to 'Collecting Sparkles' by Olivia Lufkin, on repeat while drawing this, its from her newest mini album, Trinka Trinka. The song can be found here -> [link]

Mayura diserves more spot light >3> So I used her for this picture, it differs a little from my original idea but I still like it.

Please enjoy ^^

I haven't commented on this one before? o-o
It's really good D: the lighting looks great and Mayura is such a pretty character x3
This one definitely stands out, even with as much improvement that's been done. o3o

Mayura~ Tsukino's bestfriend~~ n.n <33
I love the Sparkles. ;___; <33 The way you make things look so bright and shiny is awesome. >.< <33 Jealous Chiii~ <33 But the good kind of jealous!
How you have the light clowing on Mayura is really nice, and the black background compliments well against Mayura's colors, the sparkles and the glow. It makes EVERYTHING stand out.
I fell in love with this drawing~ <33 Hwaaahh. Great job. n.n

Exscuse me? It reminds me of Kingdom hearts, it's that simple, not the art-form, but the title and you know, the light in the darkness -_- it's hard for me NOT to assosciate to it and that is not nessescarily a bad thing.... whoa... longest comment in a year -_-"
