Description This is an idea I've had for a while but never really had the technical knowhow to do it. Now that I've played with Photoshop for a while I finally felt able to start work on this and be able to do it justice. I wanted to be able to convey how I feel about books in a non-traditional manner and this, I feel does a good job.

There are many people to thank for this project coming to fruition, especially Shime-Shanga, and his wonderful model, for use of the base picture: [link] I also need to thank redheadstock for the use of her fantastic brushes.

Beautiful! 8D I read the list of quotes you gave to the other person who commented. Some make me laugh. xD

It's a collection of some of my favorite quotes from books, some had a deep meaning to me, others were just funny.

The compiled list was:
Lo, what light from yonder window breaks?
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
Elementary, my dear Watson.
The Marleys were dead to begin with.
Quoth the Raven, β€œNevermore.”
The Charter is broken too...
What you do not smell is iocane powder.
You will learn what happens at Daybreak.
Behold the King!
Smack, sir, smack onto the marble!
To be or not to be, that is the question.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Fire from the candle ring, Water from the thaw.
So long and thanks for all the fish.
The Answer is forty-two.
Forgiveness is not an epiphany. - The Kite Runner
Seek ye out of the best books.
A wealthy man must be in a want of a good wife. - Pride And Prejudice
Please don't hit my dogs. - Emma
Perhaps one more Master Harry, for luck?
That thing has a name?!
β€œWhat do you mean? Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good on this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?”
It needs but one foe to breed a war, and those who have not swords can still die upon them.
In a stupidity contest you come second - The Enchanters Glass
You have eaten your fill, and I will make merry likewise.
Father break off for me the first branch which knocks against your hat on your way home.
Be safe.
