A Commission.

Wow, I had so much fun doing this one and the costume design allowed me to go crazy with fancy gold designs and the like. The details did take quite some time to do however, and its the first time I painted a cherry tree, but it was fun to do.

Over all I am very happy with how this one turned out, and I have to admit its one of my favs I've done so far.

Painted completely in photoshop.
Time: about a month.

All your artwork it’s beautifull but I specially like this one. I love cherry trees so it must be a little because of that 1 But also everything fits there perfectly: the costume and the background. It’s really well done.
Kepp it up 12
