woooo hoooo contest #69! Can't think of a better number! LOL Thanks for the vote! Judging was quick. Good thing I stuck this out yesterday!
I can't help but wonder what that bull was thinking while he was looking at this strange creature with a big black box in their face! =) I LOVE reflections and light!! This was fun!

cool Elly ! glad you won! wonderful!

Has to be better than seeing the reflection of your own face there, and having hot bullsnot blown all over it - being frozen with fear and calculating how fast you can tear ass to the fence. hah

This is wonderful in every way.

The eye sees danger, and squirts out acid that melts your face :p

Wow, it's pretty. It feels like looking down over a valley full of flower fields

elly (Jan 20, 2008)

Did you have as much fun drawing this as I am gazing on it? I could stare at this for hours! I love the effect of the green area on the right. It's very "fabric" looking. The colors really draw me in too. I find myself trying to get the bkgd into focus so I can see the details! LOL This is wonderful, Miss DJ! =)

Miss_DJ (Jan 20, 2008)

thank you!! I almost called this The Poppy Fields, so I'm glad you can see the flowers! I had fun creating this.

How did I know this was yours? I guess that is because you are the "Water Queen" I love it, the colors are amazing! The light is even more amazing!

The lighting is this beautiful purple/blue.
Almost like looking at a lava lamp in a way! Thank you, Mizz-ter Dave =)
