Nit Picking...

Any of you ever feel like you could work on a piece forever?
The semester is finally over and I think 3 weeks of nit picking at this illustration is enough! Haha. I created this using a combination of Corel Painter X and Adobe Photoshop CS2 (I know, I know, I need to upgrade, but its so expensive!!) for all of the painting and Adobe Illustrator was used to create the text and the pattern on the border, I'm not sure how clearly you can see that at this size though. The finished piece was supposed to be 5"x7" but I worked at 15"x21". This was a fun learning experience though for sure, my instructor submitted this along with two other pieces to be considered for entry in the AAU Spring Show, I cant wait to hear back about that, hopefully I make it!

Anyway here is the finished piece finally:
