Only a Dream

I decided to do a light study painting for practice. Initially it was supposed to be a "speed paint" but...well...I'm not good at working at a fast pace. I'm a perfectionist when it comes to my art. This took me 10 hours total.

Anyway, I cannot begin to express how much fun I had with this. The color palette I used was very simple, 5 colors total I think. The woman in the picture is the lovely Devon Amerie Lovelace...one of my characters in an RP I participate in with dear friends. She has a nice full figure to practice with. =3

Enjoy.

Music Lyrics - Only a Dream (c) Colony 5

It was only a dream but oh, what a dream!
Cut through my clouds, a midnight moon beam,
ravished my heart and made my soul scream,
blinded my eyes, a princess agleam.

Her eyes could stop a war,
like the painter in the sky
dipped his brush in a star
then painted her eye.

When God engraved
and chiseled her shape,
he unwittingly enslaved
my heart to her feet.

She said;
"I'm here for real
It's really me you feel
With your trembling hand
This is where your dreams land”

She said;
"I'm here for real
It's really me you feel
With your trembling hand
This is where your dreams land”

Her smile could stop the dawn
like the sun can’t decide
if he should leave the sky
and let her be the light

The Lady of Rain
she spoke to me
My mouth is drained
My head is asleep

She said;
"I'm here for real
It's really me you feel
With your trembling hand
This is where your dreams land”

She said;
"I'm here for real
It's really me you feel
With your trembling hand
This is where your dreams land”

"...With your trembling hand
This is where your dreams land”
