good life

normally i'm not a huge sucker for overly feel-good uppity songs unless they're put to disney movies. then lo and behold friggin disney uses this song for their commercials! i'm all the way suckered into liking it now. ah well, if u can't beat em, join em.=P

this is what i'm working on. i'm creating some interior scene of a castle as a BG for a fairly big commission. this shot was just the first stages of it. and yep, i'm watching Pirates of the Caribbeans: On Stranger Tides - AGAIN. i really enjoyed that movie and i'm glad i gave it a chance. after the 3rd movie of that series i lost all love for it, even jack sparrow. but when i saw there were mermaids in this one, i had to watch it. (fun fact: i love mermaids. always have.) so its no surprise that the mermaid scenes and anything with Serena in it are my favorite parts.

 made this for one of my friends and had it printed on canvas as a christmas gift. this is of her very pretty little princess and i heard she likes pink and purple. that cinderella castle is really intricate but there was no way i was gonna be able to recreate it without taking a week. i'm not THAT versed in illustrator. so i did a more graphic representation. i was even considering adding a tinkerbell streak across the sky but i liked it better this way. i think i'm starting to get better at this type of vector art. i'm at least taking less time than before.
