--------------------------
(I explained the drawing in a story-like form. hope that still counts
Remember how when you were a child and you could put two completely unrelated things together and create stories that could go on and on? This drawing shows something similar to that.
***
4 children living in a small, colorless village received gifts from a nearby festival, 2 fish kites and 2 umbrellas. They were amazed by the bright and beautiful colors, since they've never seen anything like it before. It was almost as if they were... magical. Knowing that the items they had were only a minor part of the festival, they began to wonder in awe of what it would be like to attend such a wonderful event. One by one, they closed their eyes and began to imagine what was at the festival, from the lovely geisha's and bright paper lanterns to the elaborate koi fish ponds and delicious sushi plates. They made everything in their imaginative festival spontaneous and colorful, and even gave the two umbrellas the ability to fly. When the children finally ran out of breath and exhausted their imaginative capacity, they opened their eyes and saw before them the festival, their magical festival, brought to life by color~

Oh my, this is so gorgeous~
It took me a while to actually soak everything in; there's just so much to see! The concept itself is beautiful and I love how it's told in a story format. It puts a nice spin on things that even leaves some things up to the viewer's imagination. I love how you portrayed the story with a simple shot of all of the items in the festival. The festival itself is a nice symbolism of happiness and imagination, and I love how many details were captured in this art piece! At first my eyes instantly went to the geisha; the portrait is really stunning and elegant. But then I quickly followed the trail of items to the colorful fish, the screens, the lanterns, the fans and flowers.. there's just so much to take in! And at last my eyes fell to the bottom where I saw the two kids holding the fishes as if they were kites-- and then I realized that they WERE kites, just brought to life! It's a really creative concept and it was portrayed beautifully here! The black and white in the background not only strengthens the concept, but it's the most perfect backdrop for all of the colorful details!
Thank you so much for entering and good luck!
