Tag As FavoriteComment		Hello people :D. Well, can't say i have formulated a story for this piece just yet, but i will explain that the moon is quite important for me. It's just a nostolgic trip down memory lane for me. The moon appeared in my dreams many a time as a youngan, but i will always remember the feeling of me wanting to reach it (either by flying to it freely or by trying to reach out with my hands). So i'd say this is one of my favourite pieces, up there with 'Neptune'. Thanks everyone Marley________ Scanned sketch (really preffering to do this now) 12-14 hours photoshop7

This is so beautiful, I just want to jump in and live there. It's also so realistic, I feel like I'm looking at a picture, or a still from a really cool looking movie.

That looks like a good setting for a evil character

Ooh... is that water flowing out of there? The sky is really neat, partly fire and partly cool, deep twilight. It reminds me of my favorite part of a song by Rich Mullins:
"Sometimes the night was beautiful
Sometimes the sky seemed so far away
Sometimes it seemed to stoop so close
You could touch it, but your heart would break..."

If I spent 12 hours on Photoshop trying to do this, I'd be done with the clouds and probably nothing else... or at least that one cloud in the corner would be done O___O

me = amazed ^____@

It looks amazing! It’s got a really nice color scheme - one that fits, anyway. With the title and stuff. Way to go!!

Wow, beautiful organic shapes and twilight colors!

Wonderful organic form reminds me a little of Roger Dean which is awesome. I really like the amazing range of purples and blues in this. Very Nice!
