Description WOW..I just spent the WHOLE day on this..and I am MOST happy with it.
The sketch I drew out last wednesday whilst parked by the lake, overlooking a dock with a lovely view. So...just added these two love birds...and....

The picture......
Jake and Holly watching the sun rise from his Mothers dock on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. They came for a visit shortly after they were married, and Jake wanted to show her the best things about living there.

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE how this came out...HOPE you do too.

Ooops, I just realized this was a sunrise. My bad. That would make more sense since Cape Cod faces east. LOL

WEll..they could be on the hook and be facing west across the bay..

ShaneJensenToons In reply to JakeMcCormick [2010-09-22 15:19:03 +0000 UTC]

That would be facing inland, though. So it probably wouldn't be a large of a view, right? Unless Cap Cod is large enough that it still is.

If the water was wide enough.which I think it is..NEVER been on the tip of the cape though...might have to go find this out now..

This is BEAUTIFUL. WOW! I love the scenery and the light effect. Great job on the sunset, seascape, and doc. Then of course the sweet work on Jake and Holly. That is absolutely adorable. This piece is really beautiful and reminds me of all the times I used to go to the sod farm to watch the sunsets when I was a kid. That's the feel I get when I look at this image. Great job on this piece. It's really truly beautiful.

I love the way you do scenery. It's amazing. I should send you a few pictures I took at the sod farm back in the day. But yeah, your picture sure did bring up those old memories. Very cool you had a nice vista area to watch the sunset as well.

Simply beautiful, you got the romantic and calming feel of this down to a T, and you really went to town on the sunrise backdrop and the water effects. Great job.

THANK you soo much Mark, I was surprised when I realized I did a background..and actually wasnt upset that I had to (I usually HATE doing back grounds, but this one was sooooooo fun getting it right)
Figured Jake deserved some happy pics, hopefully his good luck runs a bit more
