Description It was at that very moment he realised he would never experience that day again for the rest of his life. How could he let it go to waste by not watching its closure?

4 or 5 hours with my mouse on PSP9 as per usual. The background aint a photo or anything like that. Yeah I used some photo references as normal 'tis Nari standing there in the field, looking at the sunset and/or the bird. I guess that's up to you. There's a whole lot of depth to this image, too, as there are to my others, but I'm not saying what Enjoy while I feel like doing so much art Yes he is standing on snow...

Edit: Uploaded a slightly less jpeg version

Loving the colours and subtlty here. Another one of those paintings that looks to the future - I can kind of see why you were attracted to 'New Heights'.

^_^ nice.
I think you captured the light behind the clouds perfectly. You could always try making them look more fluffy, although that would be a feat in itself.
I also like the mountain-rock...things, but not so much the curvature of the ground. It IS an interesting effect, but I find it disturbing o.0 Like the ground's gonna swallow him up or something.
Just ideas, really. I love the overall effect.

treijim In reply to Azure-Eagle [2006-11-13 05:50:18 +0000 UTC]

I would make them more fluffy but I went by a photo reference to get the cloud type exactly right, so I didn't wanna change that

Azure-Eagle In reply to treijim [2006-11-13 11:58:50 +0000 UTC]

Ohhhh, I see. That would kind of defeat the purpose of the reference...

I like it when the clouds are like that, where you can see the beams of sunlight. My mom told me once that when she was a little girl, she thought that was good looking through the clouds. I dunno, but I think the same thing.

Snow looks like a half pipe, like for snowboarding.

treijim In reply to laurabeth [2006-10-16 21:49:29 +0000 UTC]

I could be a half pipe but it's not I really like it when the sun does that too. It's just so rare, and so hard to get looking right...
