Books, the written magic. ooOOOOoooOOOoooh!!!
No matter who you are, there will be a book where it will take you to a place,
a place where, perhaps, new, different, or place you knew but never had been.
If you find that book, good :3 read, have fun. If not, that's okay too o:

But once you find that book, you will find yourself ubiquitous.




okay that sound so....werid ._. I'm not even sure I used the right word. Forgive me <:{ but ....I DID put some meaning in the painting x_x

The symbolism here is really simple though. you guys all probably noticed it by now o:
I'm not one of those philosophical painters where the symbolism is super mysterious and stuff x:

crit-ing (only if you want to)
1. on the color choices of shade of the figure relative to the bg
2. on the color choices of the background. (left = snow, right = beach)
3. is bg too simple?

edit 1
made the image "better"
yup, you can't see the sides now....and...stuff :nod:

edit2
caught a little tilt in the image. so I fixed it ^_^;;

notes:
1. used Acrilicicicicic(spelling?) paint
2. took like 5 days. each worked on 5 hours (includes procrastination) procrastination...yeeeaaaahhh :nod:
3. The painting on the hat is NOT FINISHED; I gave up lol. so it will look werid :}
4. also used photoshop to determine color. I'm not a genious mixing bunch of colorful liquid-like substances x:

Gorgeous and very whimsical <3 I like how you did the contrast between light and dark here, the light seems to have a glow on it's own. The characters are really cute too (I love that little gator <3 The inner tube is adorable~) There's also alot of hidden symbolism, which just rocks, because I keep looking at it and finding something new.

Great usage of color *_*

How could you go on living, knowing everything you do is a waste of time?
:iconarbokcobra:
Well lets see..

I love your colors choices, I can't find anything really wrong with them
The BG is splendid, I love how you made it split as well as a contrast between summer and winter.
I can see a few white spaces here and there but geeze no one is perfect.. Dx and I get those all the time when I paint. They're evil.

I really REALLY like how you shaded the crocadile.. and his swim mask is really shiney.
The Lions paw looks weird, like it's at an odd angle or something.. or maybe thats cause he has no thumbs...;;

but all around I think this is awesome :D

you should illustrate books.
