Butterfly Forest

Hello Paper Demons, how have you been? I'm good, though not as active as I'd like.

Starting today though I will try to post a least one picture a day, and also comment on the pictures of all the lovely people to whom I subscribe. *shares love*

So first, here is a picture from almost two years ago, but it is still one of my favorites. Unlike many of my pictures there is no real story behind this one, but I hope you like it anyway.

:grin:

Prismacolor pencils on 9"x12" drawing paper. Took many days, as I recall.

Enjoy.

    I was so surprised when I read you did this with Prismacolors; I know how thick and smudgy they can be! You've done a really fantastic job at making an other worldly feeling...it's amazing!

    I'm really loving the aquamarine glowing down there in the right hand corner. It's amazing, and I can't accomplish that effect. And the grass is really done. ^^

      Thanks so much! Bounce

      The glow was done using layers and layers of aquamarine and true green and white, over and over (well, mostly the white), so that it glowed. Also, I added some blue-green tinges to the rocks and the tree, to make it feel like it was really giving off light.

        You're welcome Smile

        And thanks for the tip (that is if I ever draw glowing mushrooms or something) ^^
