Description
This is the first in a series of Illuminated manuscripts of my poem, "NeoRomantic Daydream" Neoromantic DaydreamOverdreampt and underslept, We'll ascend into fairytales, And we'll build an airship We'll make it out of ribbons and lace and spider webs (it has to be light, you know) If we pray for it enough, we'll f l y. And what a marvelous thing that will be. Darling, Let's go skysailing. Polluted city coughs won't touch us, When we're in a land of cotton candy castles. Just to make sure we'll be able to find our way home, Let's throw breadcrumbs behind us. And I suppose if we never make it back that's okay, because we'll be having the time of our lives. &nbsI really like how it turned out.
If you can't read it, the text is on the poem.
Soo....What do you think?
See how that has my signature? That means it's mine. Okay? That means that I really don't want you to do anything with it without my permission, but you can favorite, and feature the hell outta it as long as it stays in dA. Please? Oh, and I like comments too. Thanks

I want this. I feel like you captured my soul and the entire point of my existence and made it into a piece of amazing artwork.
I'd totally trade you jewelry for this, though if I were you I wouldn't part with it heheh.

Really? Wow, I'm so glad my art has given you souch a great experience. That's entirely the most beautiful comment I've received in my life, and you've captured the entire point of me being an artist, to give people feelings like that.
I am sorely tempted by your gorgeous jewelry, if only this weren't a school project, then I would trade!
There are two more parts. I've finished pt 2 and am working on three. I hope you like them as well.

aww I think it's so cute! I actually love your contrasting imagery of the fairytale like sailing and cotton candy in comparison to the nasty polluted city. I also like that you chose to make it an illustrated manuscript, very nice!

I love the poem, it's fantastic. A wonderfully dreamy piece. It's actually not something I tend to go for, but this really caught my imagination.
My only nitpick of the poem is that I'm sure 'dreampt' isn't a word.
I've got mixed feelings on the manuscript. I love the imagery, the colours, the writing style and the line breaks. But I think the arrangement of words undermines the poem a little. It becomes blocky and a little hard to read - meaning and rhythm lost in the condensing of line breaks.

Mm...You're right the words do look blocky.
Thanks for pointing this out! Part 2 of the manuscript looks much better because of it.
