What I really call it that doesn't fit in the title box is Here's the day you hoped would never come, from an Imogen Heap song.
...
Pencil art and Photoshop CS2. another of those pictures that just wouldn't let me put down my pencil; it took me past 2.30am... It was also very impatient. I think I should like to come back to it as a proper digital painting with more detail some day, but meanwhile it needed out. (& I couldn't decide which college Sarah should be wearing the sweater of.)
....
I don't know what my story is.
Maybe Sarah has just woken up from a dream--of Hoggle warning her, of the Labyrinth in danger, of him... Maybe there was a note with the crystal. Maybe she has just moved away to college and on her first night in her new room, someone is making a point. Maybe it is her birthday. Maybe someone from her college who knows her story is playing a cruel joke. Maybe it is the answer to a prayer. Maybe she has just got back from the school office where she was talking to a hysterical Karen on the phone telling her Toby had disappeared after school that day--and now, this. Maybe she has been staring at it motionless for over an hour now. Maybe he has come to her and then left her this gift--and what parting words?
I challenge anyone to tell me the story of this picture. Whoever gets it right, I'll do a commission for.

I have stories!
Paisley Rose, already one of my favourite ff.net ficwriters, responded to this most wonderfully : [link]
~Chamaelirium has two one-shots, one which might yet grow into something else, on her dA profile and on ff.net [link] [link]
and say a prayer, and prepare for mind-f*ckage with Subtilior's In a Glass, Darkly : [link]
wow amazing detail on sarah's reflection, and her gaze can just let people imaginig so many angsty stories!!!
how did you add that glowing to the crystal sphere? I it!!!
that is a pretty challenge you know? to tell a story about whats going on.... so? people have to guess what crossed YOUR mind when you did this piece of art? or do they have to create a story fitting this image? eh?
Thanks.
The glow was... very careful application of Photoshop's gradient effect, and a low-opacity "fuzzy" brush.
AS for the story--well, you say yourself, there are many angsty stories to imagine in her eyes. Tell me yours. I didn't have one particular story in mind when this drawing came out--I had possibilities; I had all those "maybe"s. So there's no one correct answer... just write a fitting story, ficlet, one-shot for this image, and if it feels right to me, I'll say thank you.

That is great! I love your labyrinth stuff, and sarah looks exactly right too.
The glow effect is really good as is the perspective. Niiiice, if i could right i would so do a story for this...
We want to know what love means to you!
Get your creative juices flowing and design a movie poster for "Paper Heart" that focuses on the theme "What Does Love Mean to Me?".

The butter legion- a socialist movement/mass colab project I started, to trigger artistic change and evolution in Da artists (mainly my watchers), to make them more active and dedicated on DA.

Hello there! This news article is the result of a thumb share thread I posted few days ago on the dA forum along with pictures from my favorites. I hope you enjoy them.
