Description A little painting I did when I was 16, inspired by the song of the same name. I wanted to do a dreamlike, serene, surreal landscape with lots of colour - so I did. Ha. I wanted to try and nail the feeling of late afternoon sun. Hmm. Even though its a little cheesy, I still like it

SofJohns In reply to Simanion [2009-01-30 14:56:27 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome! I do that too, I love to listen quitely to Diorama and find out some great new little sounds. I can't decide for a fauvorite song for that album, I like them all, all the songs have something really special about it. ^^

Soo what's going on with graphic design? Did anyone actually have theirs finished and ready for print? I didnt go on thursday (wk12) because I hadnt done anything (again), as in done any computer work, and was too scared of what Gregor would say lol.

my older daughter is into arts, tried everything but decided to stick to her own style (cartoony type), though every now and then will do some painting if she needs to

when we were posted in Australia, her art teacher (as well as her teachers here) kept on telling her to try new things and not just stick to one style/medium...
