For the :iconlet-it-di: contest Fragile Dreams. And I'm very last minute. The contest closes in a few hours :lol:

Lovely colors and composition. It seems that the shadowy figure sends her(his?) birds to catch the stars. :+fav:

Good luck at the competition :)

Yes, that's a way to interpret it. Going for the stars, wishing for the stars...

Thanks a lot :-)

My lord your textures never cease to amaze me, how long does a piece like this take you? This is true skill man.

This didn't take me as long as some as the others I've done. I made it on and off during an evening. I was late for the contest so I didn't want to use more time and actually reused different elements and textures from previous pieces, just tried to put them together in a new way.

Very cool. I like how you incorporated the swirls into the figure on the right. I like the fragile leaf patterns on the left image too.

The left image feels like it's filled by the blue shape, while the right image feels like the background is airy space, so they balance each other out well.

And as usual, I like the colors.

Are you familiar with cantarella?

Thanks a lot. :hug: I'm glad you think they balance each other because I've had a moment of doubt whether the right one is too bare in the background compared to the other side. So it's nice to get an opinion on that.
