Description
This is an illustration about a known fable (The Tortoise and the Hare) that takes on a different look when it enters a person's dreams. I used acrylics, markers, color pencils, and airbrush with metallic acrylic inks. Unfortunately, the scanner is ,of course, unable to pick up the effect of metallic ink. I needed to touch up the top part of the illustration since the surface I used did not take color pencils very well. I used photoshop to touch it up.Related content

I can't get over how freaking awesome and wonderfully done this looks! I just love the use of blue values in the person dreaming and the bright vividness of the actual dream. That definitely conveys the dream feeling very nicely. And like others have said, that hare looks pretty creepy! Hehe. But the whole piece is done very well, especially the use of color.

I love how two worlds are merged together here, separated by their color palates. The top of it keeps the eye moving but the bottom, with all its softness, gives it some closure I think.
Definitely deserving of a DD.

This is why one shouldn't race against Chick Hicks.
