Artist's Comments

I blame this on Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. Just watched the dvd tonight..and this came out afterwards...a random speedpainting.

I always had a love for the Baobaob tree of Madagascar off the coast of Africa. Something about those trees always gave me a sense of the far away, of dreams, of an alien world.

This will probably end up in scraps just because it isn't a super refined piece...but I like it just the same :).

Size: 2000 x 1250 pixels
Resolution: 200 dpi

Interesting work, I'd like to see it in a bigger size if possible. The coloring is wonderful and creates a dreamy atmosphere. I like the composition a lot too. The piece looks more like a traditional painting. Please don't scrap it!

Please don't put it into scraps... It's very pretty...
The perspective is wonderful! The way the clouds are in a kinda.. radial pattern makes it a LOT more believable... And the tree itself looks great! The lighting, the textures... the leaves of the tree look great too, with a faint touch of the sunset/sunrise light on them.

What stood out as well was the sky! The sky... wow! The stars, the faint, light brush of darker colour over them and those little stars between the clouds... and I love how the clouds to the left reflect a touch of blue!!

I should stop writing longer comments, I don't think they do much =P But I like writing long comments, so... *coughs* Anyway. Yep this piece is a definite fav...

and again, please don't scrap this!
