Just Believeby *ForeverBigBlue68

Digital Art / Photomanipulation / Fantasy

Inspired by and dedicated to all the amazing fantasy authors I have had the honor to enjoy. They have taken me on wondrous adventures in mystical places full of magic and heroes. I will not attempt to name them all,there are just too many. I will just thank them for their tall tales and wonderful characters that will forever be a part of me.

I have tried to represent the power of the imagination fueled by the written word in this work. I chose a book with blank pages to help create the appearance of the story jumping from the pages and coming to life. A feeling I have had more than once when lost in some epic tale. I wish that my talent was a little further advanced at blending but that too only comes with practice. I hope you enjoy my attempted tribute to something that I hold dear to my heart and if anyone has any advice please feel free to let me know.

Hello and welcome to DA. While I am glad you like my picture it is a manipulation from the stock I have linked in the credits section. This picture is not stock but all the images I used for it are. You can download them and make the picture any way you would like. I checked and all the links still work and they are free to download and use here on DA. All the stock artist ask is that you credit them as I did in the comments section and let them know you used their stock. I hope this is helpful to you and thank you very much for the compliment.

Wow this is gorgeous, I love the fact the unicorn doesn't have typical Pegasus wings or something of the like.

*ForeverBigBlue68 Dec 6, 2009

Thank you,I was trying to find something to use these stock unicorns in for some time. The wings were hard to fit into most of the ideas I had but this seemed a good place for them to finally show off.

Yeah it makes it way more surreal I think.
