100% @Oaktavia - taking him to that spot when he is a little older would be magical.

I like that you made the colours a bit brighter - I am sure your son will like that.

Super cool

@Oaktavia Truly beautiful and an excellent bedtime story setting. Your boy will be telling people about this forever I'm sure

@Oaktavia what a beauty, great work man. Pretty inspiring thread here as well. I need to get back to some creative outlets. As a washed up printmaker my creative endeavors have dwindled...2009 was not a great year in my neck of the woods to be looking for work as a BFA grad, so my path took me some other directions. Really need to scratch that itch again though, the ol' mental health could certainly use it.

@derek111 it can be super difficult to get back into creating. I painted a lot in my early 20s and then was unproductive for about a decade. Finally, a few years ago I picked it back up again. Some things just take time and can't be rushed.
