Artist's Comments

Everyone has something in life they want badly but just can't have. Illusory hope, that's what this painting is about.
You hunt it and once you think you're finally getting close it just disappears. So you'll have to think of another way to get there.

You need the right leverage. This girl used balloons, of course they are metaphorical. So don't give me "she's not chasing rainbows! she chasing balloons you moron!"

Anyhow I'm going to leave the rest up to you guys to see. Interpret as you wish.

After my recent submission this is probably more what you guys watch me for ;) I must admit this is more my cup of tea too. After strawberry of course ;) oh! and cinnamon :bucktooth:

Techniques: Painting in photoshop. Crappy blurry reference for the pose but it worked. My first time painting clouds, they are fun!

the walkthrough can be found here

Enjoy! :heart:

dedicated to my multiple fiancees in *DMchat =P & *luscious-beauty :love: =mynti colourful enough for ya? ;)
