Description
I'm not sure what I should say about this... it was a pretty personal picture, but by the 10th hour that I've worked on this whatever profound meaning I had in mind all went out the window (however, I do hate crying in public).
Did this in PS7 and Painter 8. It took longer than 10 hours ;)
As far as technique goes, I was going for more of the style that other Asian artists employ with their fantasy/character art; more focus on colour, lots of anal retentive details in the costume, atmospheric background etc. Hope you like.

This is a very nice picture. I like the color scheme and soft light you use. It has a bit of an Japanese anime sort of look to it.

I can see how this would be meaningful to you. It's actually a very powerful image with beautiful pastel colors and you've captured the sadness in her expression perfectly. I looked at both the process and detail and find your work amazing and inspirational.

I have to say, I think this is one of the most emotional creations I've ever seen. The colors you've used tie in so wonderfully with the emotion on her face ... light, ethereal, yet sombre in tone ... wonderful.

There is nothing anal retentive in any aspect of this pic. I'm awed! You have done a spectacular image and I am very very impressed.

I cannot find any surreal element here but the image is certainly beautiful and tender.
