Description
It's probably fairly obvious to many viewers that this piece is Alice In Wonderland inspired, which is fitting since Alice is probably the literary character out of the many millions out there that I love and relate to the most strongly. What might not be as easy to put a finger on is the underlying concept here... the importance of being able to appreciate one's own company and find validation and approval within one's self before said self goes looking for it from others. We have to share our own company 24 hours a day, so I feel it's important to actually be a person we respect, admire, and don't mind spending that much time around! Stock used to help create this piece comes from *Lisajen-stock for the Alices and sxc for everything else.Related content

Rather nice piece. However, its rather un natural looking. If you don't mind me saying so, I suggest in the future play with photo-filters and gradient maps, and also perhaps the omni lighting effect. It'll help blend in the pieces so it looks less...err...fake? And it'll add to the mood and lighting, add a bit more depth. By any change did you use a soft eraser, on the teapot theres that hazy white glow, that again makes it look on the fake side but also, if you used cold type colors [blues, purples etc] it would work fine I'd think as it would create a more, misty, fantasy type feel.

Thank you.... I think the "unnatural" feeling you're getting has to do with the girls and table setting being bigger than they should be. It was something I did on purpose to nod toward the size changes Alice goes through in the original story, but I'm not sure how successful it really was. Probably wouldn't do it quite the same way next time, you know? But live and learn.

Nope, I actually got that from it, but the colors and lighting just...well they're different. Obviously the lightings different the fact it different photos put together so you need to try and...uh compromise if thats the right word? For that if you know what I mean. Sorry I suck at explaining. XD

Is it me, or are those two really big women and a table in comparison with the background?

Actually it isn't just you. I actually wanted this to have a slight dollhouse effect to nod toward the changes in size Alice went through repeatedly in the book. That's probably what you're seeing.
