A Gift of Moonlight

Lets ignore the fact that this is pin...pi.... not-quite-purple and move straight onto more interesting stuff....

More experimenting with the Intuos on this image. I've kinda got the hang of clouds now, so wanted to try something else I've never been able to do - trees. The contrast of this image hides a multiitude of sins with my abilities, but over all I'm quite pleased that I've managed to make them look at least half way towards being trees even if they are a little impressionistic.

Again with this I used techniques I would have employed had it been oil painting, but the great thing about the PC is the ctrl-Z button

Overall, once I had a couple of goes to get the trees right I just let the picture grow itself. Like previous submissions I was going for more of a vibe and a mood than any particular focus. Set this as ur desktop and let it just pull you in, thats the sort of feel I was going for.

Original image is 2400x1600 so theres a hefty bit of cropping and resizing for this submission. Which is annoying cos there are so many little textures and details that get cut when its resized gonna have to by the print version if u want the full experience
