Description Gold and silver rings and stones,
Dances slowly off the moon,
No one else could know, she stands alone...
Sleeping dreams will reach for her,
She can not say the words they need,
She knows she's alone and she is free...
Ocean Gypsy of the moon,
The sun has made a thousand nights for you to hold...
Ocean Gypsy where are you?
Ocean Gypsy - Blackmore's Night

Merry Christmas to all of you and wonderful Happy New Year!

This is my Christmas Card for all of you. So sorry that this year I was so busy and finished it just some hours ago and I did not managed to send it for some of you in post. I hope you will forgive me and the digital version and my best wishes via digital channels are acceptable. I hope so much that all of you will have peaceful (hopefully white) Christmas with your beloved ones and family.

My special thanks with this work will go to ~SilkAssassin as without his resources and tutorials this work would not be. Thank you so much for your time and effort.

This piece is special for me because so long I have wanted to use *auroradreams ' stunning stock but so far I have not had the change. It was almost a month ago when I was listening Blackmore's night one evening, browsing trough her gallery and then the vision came. Maybe you do not see it but to make that nebula - it is not so easy as you think. Most of my time went there and on those little details I painted. So, don't forget to check the details as much is missed on the final image I uploaded here as I have said before - I mostly work 3-4 times larger than the upload will be. And yes - the nebula and sky. I am so thankful that I was able to use such stunning resources and tutorials from ~SilkAssassin as it is so great feeling when you finally have managed to create your own nebula - just the way you want it. And learn new things, improve - I want to do that with ever piece I make.

Very nice. I've been thinking of illustrating this song (and several others from Renaissance) for a long time - the imagery and tragic feeling in the song are very powerful.

I love that song, but it was originally written by Renaissance, not Blackmore's Night. Just thought you might want to know.

Iardacil In reply to angua22892 [2009-09-08 06:11:21 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for information..I mean, the version inspired me was Blackmore's.. so.. it is the matter of one other image and song too.. originally it was written by someone else and even thought I heard the original way before the version inspired me.. one version left me cold, other just painted picture in front of my eyes..

Totally understand. It is a gorgeous picture and I think it captures the spirit of the song.

the image has nothing to do with Gypsies and the song is a racist stereotype.

The dress is stunning. And I love Blackmore's Night!
We always knew he was pagan. It's something you just can't hide. LOL!!
