Description
Time: Over a month? (I've worked on it in small chunks)
Layers: 46 (after I merged all of the layers from vectoring & painting Sakura)
Hardest Part:Making it look watery o_o
Inspiration: "Watermark" by Enya... It's such a pretty track.

I vectored the outline and base colors for Sakura, then went back and painted the details. Originally her dress had no real detail to it, but I thought it looked too plain that way and added some patterns to her outfit. The idea was to make it look like she's almost in an under water cathedral, but I didn't want it to look too busy and so I kept the tweaked and repainted cathedral hallway somewhat hard to see... Well, I thought it looked better that way and gave it a more illusionary feel.

I know I haven't really submitted much lately... I've drawn a lot, so I'll try to post an original piece rather than a wallpaper soon ^_^'
