Artist's Comments

Wow. I absolutely loved painting this. This pic should have taken me about a week or less to paint but stupid school came around. :( Now I finished it almost a month before I started it. >>;
I love the story of Hansel and Gretel. I'm so jealous. I want an older brother like Hansel. :(
I used as much reference as I could get for the gingerbread house and the cloths for these two little German kids. I was so surprised that none of the other artists drew their expressions when they first see the gingerbread house. I know they should be dirtier, but hey, this is a fairytale! : D
Pumped up the saturation and contrast cause it's fun to use such bright colors. :3 BTW, that gingerbread house took awhile.

Used PhotoshopCS. Hansel and Gretel by the Grimm brothers. :D

Wallpaper available. If you want one just say please. :3

WOW. I mean, I know I'm supposed to give helpful comments and stuffbut..I just can't think of anything at the moment. I've been shocked into silence. Sort of.

INCREDIBLE.

I would like to be the air that inhabits you for a moment only. I would like to be that unnoticed, and that necessary.

Yay yay yay it's done!!!

That gingerbread house looks absolutely scrumptious. If it was in my neighborhood, I'd devour it immediately. Except for the licorice. I don't like licorice. D:

The background is gorgeous too~ I love how you added the eyes in the hole of the tree and that sparkly white birdy~ Definitely a fairytale touch. But the best part of the pic is the kids' expressions. xD So adorable.

:love:

OHOH! I read the story recently and I found that there actually was a white bird that led them to the house. :O

+Gasps+ I love this!! Aww. The lighting effect is really, really nice~. (I never really liked the story...it freaked me out.)

I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him.
