Description Gift art for an ex, I loved the movie UP, so I took an Idea and ran with it. I learned an awful damn lot about photo shop brushes in the time it took me to do this. I like the color palette I went with on this, though I ran into some trouble with the level of detail on the foreground focal points versus the background, and lost a little sense of depth between them... alas. But that's nitpicking, I'm cheap and paintings are free, that's all that matters : P

(and and it looked bomb as hell in a frame too.)

This turned out really nice! I especially like all the detail placed in the lighting on the house and its shingles!

I showed my girlfriend and she asked me if I was trying to make her cry. I said, "No. Unless they are happy tears... then yes."

You've done well. ^^

It's totally awesome... The smooth colour shades are giving it a fairylike tone and the contrast between the whole romantic purple-pink and the colourfull ballons is exciting...

Plus, I like the way you have only the flying house and the airoplane detailed...

Fantastic piece...

She's really lucky, you know...

DeadlyCouncil In reply to Nymfadora [2009-07-01 01:17:13 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I've noticed the pieces I've made for her always seem to have that color palette, which is strange since I normally never touch that part of the spectrum lol. I appreciate it

"The more you love someone, the less sense anything make..."

Wise words...

Anyway, it was my pleasure...
