Description
This is for the Rainbow Eye Contest done by . Here's the link if you wanna participate too: [link]I made the rainbow a circle in the eye b/c an actual rainbow is a full circle. We only see half of it since the rest disappears beyond the horizon. I named this piece "A Promise" not only b/c the rainbow is a symbol of God's promise not to flood the earth again, but to show that even after a terrible storm, there will always be something good after it. A promise surrounding the earth... Oh, what a sap I am!
Also, I put "A" instead of "The" in front of "Promise" b/c there's always going to be more than ONE rainbow ya know. XP

i know it sounds weird, but i would kinda like to see the world if it had flooded, after it drained... it would be so... surreal.

That's beautiful! I think the eye was done with Photoshop, correct me if I'm wrong...but the area around the outside. Was that done with Photoshop or makeup? Either way, this is still a stunning piece.

Yeah, the eye was definitely done with Ps, and so was the area around the eye! ^^ I made it really soft so it'd be hard to tell.
