update 20.10.2012 : i found the original ref on dA today, i just found it on the internet, here is the ref apologies to the artist, i may tell me to take it out, so until then i keep it here
there we are, pure fantasy and oh boy, did I enjoy myself painting those flames. It is rather different from what I usually do, so I hope you people still like it
I dedicate this to a very sweet and very talented friend - I wanted you to have something special and magical sweetheart.
...it doesn't matter if it is "old",one day,all our precedent works will be old,after all,the importance is,that it is beautiful.I like the atmopshere,what is going on there,is mystical and mystirious.She is looking beautiful and tender,there is something emotional here inside,and that is what I prefere,also.Wonderful details,as in habit.
