Artist's Comments

The single monitor version of an entry for the Multi-Monitor Mayhem contest. More importantly, it's a new wallpaper for me that I not only dig, but done in a style I've never really thought about trying before. The lilies were referenced from a photo taken by my mother of one of her gorgeous ikebanas. Though only the flower was used, I tried to keep the same harmony she originally designed, but alas, my black thumb doesn't allow me to do flower arrangement. Anyways, enjoy!

Created in Adobe Illustrator.
Lovin' the g-mesh tool.

i really like this. its simple, yet sweet. perfect as a wallpaper. :clap:
the curls from the flowers are really cool too. :D

id like to ask how you did it, but that might stretch to a tutorial, knowing me. :giggle:

keep it up. :boogie:

Eh, I really like the flow here. You don't have to arrange the flowers any more.
For being minimalistic, this is well-balanced--great shading and colour choices.

Is the world really upside down??.. No..wait.. I think I am drunk. Tee hee hee.

thank you very much. hehe yeah i don't do tutorials. basically it took a lot of patience, the gradient mesh tool in illustrator, an decent reference photo. The swirlies around the flowers were all just kind of intuitive. I don't know, sometimes it just flows =)
:iconhumanskin:
thanks =)
I stopped arranging the flowers at that point just because everything else i tried to do looked too overworked. i'm glad you agree :aww:
:iconarwenpotter:
Absolutely gorgeous! I can see that as my wallpaper!

Animals dancing in my mind
You say I'm not allowed to paint them
Who says that you own all, Fight like a child
Just because you believe that you got there first.

Did you create that flower from scratch digitally or was it a photo that you manipulated? Either way I really like it. Was just wondering thats all.
