Artist's Comments

This painting... oh god this painting. I wanted to get at least one more thing up before i leave on holidays for a month, so i started this thinking, yeah should take and hour or two.... 12 hours later and ta da! Its all done. The flowers were the hardest part, but i'm damn proud of the actual butterfly, i was trying to make it lifelike and furry, so i hope i captured that. Feel free to :+fav: it and comment, i wanna know what i gotta work on.

Tools: Adobe Photoshop CS2
Stock photo from somewhere... :S found it on my computer.
Time: 12 and a bit hours.

Weaving a spell of my burning desire

His ear-lobe fell in the deep.
Someone reached in and grabbed it.
It was a rock lobster.

I really like this one. Partly, because I love butterflies...partly because it's cute that you called it flutterby...and partly because you've done such a fantastic job on it.

It all looks so lifelike, which obviously, was the point. :p The leaves and the flowers are spot on I think. The only thing I'd do (if I knew how to) would be with the butterfly's wings. You know how butterfly wings have that dusty, not quite opaque look? You know I'm completely lacking when it comes to artistic talent, so there's no need to pay much attention to what I say :p Just an observation I guess.

Fantastic work nonetheless.

oo, purdy, i think it looks real nice!
