    his artwork is distinctive for sure
    its got a lot of thick strokes and detail.

    i like the similar tones and the blending. the creepy overtones are worked in too well ^__^'
    cause the guy looks a bit demon.

    cool how the text is blended into the texture like that.
    nice stuff

    a truly beautiful wall to dedicate to your wife. Love the composition. the darkening of the original scan and how you balanced this with the window. Strikes me as they are in a room on a boat and there is just enough light filtering in to "light the way".

    yet another incredible original Amano wall from you..
    note: go on people view in full mode and comment....

    Here I am... sorry I arrived late... but since I am one of the Amano madness people... of course I will comment on this wallpaper...May I say as my excuse that I got stuck in the gallery of Amano scans?
    This certainly is an awesome wallpaper... I compared it to the original scan... I like how you darkened it... the lines look so much softer now... and the detail with the birds... it looks so romantic... and the whole "project" is romantic... it's even dedicated to your wife...
    It's always difficult to add text into a wallpaper but the letters here are just as soft as the other lines... so it really becomes one.

    Dream wrote something in my guestbook, that the name of your new website is part of the title... "Sei-Iki"?... Good luck with your continuing work on the website...

    And i hope to see more of your incredible work soon...

    x) The favorite limit is stupid.
    That said, I love this wallpaper. Its subtle hues and simple lines express the emotion in this piece clearly. Good work. :}

    Dark and peaceful. The texturing and colors are simply magical, truly evocative of sanctuary. & the sun :: XD :: looks familiar.

    The sun seems slightly out of place (although the symbolism is nice) and I'm not sure if I like the orange-y texture, but this is lovely. DC you're a master at creating moody atmospheres! @_@

    A great choice to dedicate to your wife - so soft and romantic (and I got really mushy when I saw this one). And the title is just perfect for it.

    A late comment I know...but I just stumbled across it now

    I absolutely love what you did with the lighting and the colors in this wall...it preserved the mood of the original scan while injecting more emotion...a very ethereal feel
    The text fits so well it's almost like a part of the scan and I like that you used the spot of brightness to bring out the background contrast

    extremely well designed wall
