After more than half a year of procrastinating, giving myself excuses like I couldn't find the time, I finally decided to sacrifice sleep for the past few days and did this. :) And I am so damn glad to have completed it, not because it was awesome, but because I did what I promised myself.

The smiling moon reminds me so much of my mom's theme when she was a watercolor artist - she had this crescent moon /sun/smiling face thing. (You wouldn't know of it as she did cards and stationary for a small american company - I don't even know what it was, I was so young.)
I think Picsa might be automatically "sharpening" or something along those lines, because it's making the corona around the moon really distinct, and the arc behind, where you faded into the lighter blue in the distance, the "funny blue lines" that you were talking about. (I don't see any other funny blue lines...)I don't know if smudging a little along those lines would help, as my computer painting skills fail.
OH MY GOD THE CAMPFIRE. It is amazing. I want to hold my hands up to the screen and see if they warm up. And the light on Bear and Bun was brilliant.

Really? Your mom's theme is so cute! :D Haha, I don't know what Picasa is doing, but I see a lot of horizontal blue lines in some parts of the sky. :P I don't see them in my original copy thought, so I've got nothing to smudge, haha.

Eee, that makes me wanna squeal! ^^ I repainted the fire quite a few times and mixed up my layers on that, actually. And was hopping mad to realise I messed them up. XD Thank you!

P.S. Your avatar is so cute!

Aaaah, thank you!! ^^ Haha, these are the things I painted and repainted many times, so it's especially gratifying that you would like them! :D

I think it's really beautiful! I know what you mean, being happy about completing something like this, so congratulations on that. I love your Bear and Bun, and I liked the subtle smile with the moon. :)

I'd love to see more of this from you. :)

Hehe, thank you so much! :D I don't know when I'll even start on the next one though. :P School is proving to be a lot heavier than I thought.
