Artist Comment

Hello everyone! *big waves and hugs*

It has been such a long long time since I have submitted a wallpaper (4 months-I believe).
As many of you already know, I have been busy. But I am glad to be back and miss everyone here. Thank you all for your encouraging comments in my guestbook.

I rarely dedicate a wall because I just have many friends here and it is hard to dedicate a wall to one person without considering or hurting the feelings of another. So I would like to just simply dedicate this wall to all here as a gift from me missing everyone and thanking for the much encouragement.

About the Wall

I simply feel in love with the picture and wanted an enchanting floral garden.
Though it was annoying >_<
The backdrop is composed of course from the flowers from the original scan, but placing and extracting each section and certain aspects of the sections was quite a bit of work.
The peacock was made by me with just using one of the 'eyes' of the feathers from the girl's dress.
Since we are drawn to her pretty eyes and to the eyes of the peacock, I thought it would be mysterious to the garden to have an eye watching over the garden and representing the beauty of it.

I must thank a wonderful, sweet guy--though I don't think he realized that-for helping me out with coming up with the title for the wall. I wanted something to sound unique and exotic and he is well-versed in many languages. And so he helped and developed the title--"Hesperides" being of the nymphs over the blossoming garden. Thank you dear Iscalio.

::NOTE::
Thanks to Dream, I found out who the artist is, but sadly I can't get back to change it. I hope one of the mods could. But here is the scan. Thanks Dream ^^

    Very beautiful wall. I've never seen this scan before and I like it. I'm not a great fan of "red" but this colour is looking great with the girl.
    This is a very expensive wall. God bless my "Free Download Quota" ;)

    You've done a beautiful job of extending the image using just the limited pieces in the scan. Reminds me of an old Victorian-style calender I used to have.

  21. rubenz Jul 11, 2006

    o.O I miss this wallie lol , how come^^ this is nice emma san ^^ i love how you are dong with the bg ^^

  22. bbls Jul 11, 2006

    i absolutely luv the composition here...you did a superb job in the placement of the flowers and creating those peacock feathers, which adds more beauty to the look of your wallie. i also luved how you brightened the colors from the original scan because now your wallie looks more vibrant and alive. and you're so right how we are drawn to her beautiful eyes and face...she is certainly stunning. that eye in the background makes me feel like there is also an omnipotent being looking over her and the rest of us. i'm always amazed that your wallies have a deeper meaning and the composition reflects that! :D

  23. mizu-megami Jul 11, 2006

    Emm~-chaaan~ ^^ *huggle attack*
    it's good see wallies from you again\^_^/ and really....I can't find any bad points in this one^^
    Maybe, the only bad point is, the colors from the flowers are a bit onesided....But i really wouldn't know how you could change that and make it look beter at the same time^^;;;;;
    oh well^^; I still really like the walli^^ it's going to my favs for sure=)
