Description "Fantasies in my head
I drift away to all seas
Deep underneath the ocean
I heard the tale of the sea maid

All this beauty
It lights up my life
I ride the waves
To far-off seas
And I lay on the golden sand
I reflect the sun
I make you dream..."

Leaves' Eyes - Tale Of The Sea Maid



I tried to get a hint of that airbrushing thing - so some parts of this piece are painted though it's still quite entirely a photomanipulation. Maybe I'd need some kind of tutorial... Full view is highy recommended - see also the close-up for details.

The photo merging works well here. Great job blending the white dress with the crest of the ocean wave. The sunset colors and tone portrays a very soft feminine touch that carries on with the lady as she steps towards the beach. Visually pleasing to see.

Beautiful work! Another artist on DA has used your manip, added other elements to produce her own lovely work. I suspect she did not read or understand your rules:

This is gorgeous. It really reminds me of Jonathon Earl Bowser's traditional art, particularly his elemental and goddesses series. Lovely blending.
