Description
Quick little 30 minute watercolor that I did to avoid work (i.e. chores, homework, art I should be doing but am not...).
It's based off of the song "Lazy Days" by Enya. It's light 'n airy 'n whimsical and fit my mood quite well this afternoon. Especially since I got to see my bud ~mahlee-nrite
Oh, and sorry if the white areas appear greyish. I can't tell...um, I guess that's it. Enjoy.
Cheap watercolor and graphite on (expensive) Bristol paper
Time: like I said earlier, 'bout 30 minutes

You really captured the whimsical feeling you were inspired by. This peice is just lovely and light and would fit perfectly as an illustration in a nursery ryhme book.

Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont...
Sorry. I know yours was inspired by Enya, but seeing this pic I think of the German "99 Luftballons" (obviously German, those lyrics ain't in English!). Cute little pic!

Thank you.
Now that I look at it, he (or she, I don't know...) looks kind of lost amid all that blue.

Aw! It's cute! I luff joo, Spectrolite. I thought my friend Solemnheart4 did this (she uploads a lot of crap to expand her gallery) and I was going to yell because I did a series based off a red balloon. But it's not her, and it's not crap, so anyway...
*faves*

Poor kitty, hope there is some food and kitty litter on the moon.
Lovely pic

That would be tragic if the moon had no essentials! Perhaps there's a pizza place that delivers to that area.

Nice. Cheap watercolour & stuff doesn't look that good on expensive paper.

That it doesn't. But not only can I not afford expensive paints, I don't know how to use the expensive watercolors. It comes in tubes and that frightens me...

I think you, um... You put the paint into a cup and put a little water into the cup so it makes it softer... Then, um... You use more water on the brush for brighter colours & use less for darker, or something.

I think you're on to something.
