not gonna be winning any prizes with this but I've been enjoying all the entries in this contest so~ :love: I wanna participate too!

pencil on watercolor paper + textures and colors generated in photoshop (yes, the texture is original) ♥

Edit: :omg: omg, I'm a semi-finalist! I'm so excited!
Notes on the work from my journal:

"I was very happy with my design but didn't think it would be chosen, so this is a great surprise! The idea was about being connected with both nature and technology...cool thing with a laptop is you can take it anywhere. Learning and fun on the go! I also wanted to do something that was both digital and traditional, with the linework in pencil and colors in Photoshop."

:la:

Thanks! :love:

Everyone seems to really like the texture. It wasn't that hard to make in Photoshop - maybe I should make a tutorial? :laughing:

This idea is very, very creative. I love the combination of nature and technology! The texture looks amazing as well; I feel as if I could reach out and touch the leaves and the bark! The slight angle makes the picture off balanced, which I love because technology and nature can't always be nicely balanced, and the way the orange and yellows fad to red as you get farther away from the sun is spectacular. I would love to have this design on my laptop - I can't stop looking at this picture!! Brilliant work!! :clap:
