Hello Nathan...I cant even in any way imagine being able to create this! But it is of course very beautiful. It makes me think of a heart inside a person...how it radiates....

Now you have gone and made more work for me.. I am going to have to figure our how you did this.. Hmm... It's just gorgeous.. Love it..

Your work amazes and fills me up w/jealousy!!!!!!! This looks just amazing! Do you look at your work and get amazed??? Nicely done I must say!

There are some times when I'm playing around with an image in Photoshop, an idea will come into my head to try out, and when I try it, the image pops up and wows me. Most of the time, it's like painting a picture - you just keep changing portions here and there; changing the color value in a section, adding a texture to another, putting a soft focus on one area, and sharpening up another. Eventually, to keep from overworking it, you have to say, "OK, I'm done with it. This is what I wanted to accomplish." In this, I keep seeing small things I'd like to change, but I think I accomplished what I started out to do with it. Anyway, you've been so kind. Thank you for your compliments. I take pleasure in knowing that something I created to please me also pleased you.

Wow! Beautiful work Nathan! I'd be proud to hang it on my Christmas tree. Great job sir!..=)

I would defintely like to put this on my (admittedly too secular) winter-time holiday tree. Seriously.. Great imaginitve image.

Wow! This is, as usual, amazing.
I thought you couldn't get any better-it's nice to be proven wrong... =)

I joined Caedes so I could get tips on how to do things as good as you....you're making the task seem insurmountable (but in a good way :) )

Thank you. These are not too hard to do, but it did take me some time to get to this point.

Pastels are the food of faries

absolutely beautiful....
