Spirit of the autumn

*pheeew* O_o Because of the different contests I hadn´t had the time to do a really big illustration but now!!! *_* There is still some work to do but I wanted to draw this illustration no matter what! *_* I haven´t used copics in a long time... ._. It´s nice to know that I still can draw with them! ^_^

About the illustration... It reminds me of my childhood! ^_^ I was living Rostow, a big city in Russia and the autumn there was really beautiful! *.* It often happened in the kindergarden that we went collecting leaves with our teacher and the colours were just stunning! *.* I can´t remember seeing that many red and yellow tones again! *.* My grandmother also very often took me into the forest in autumn - I, a child of city, loved it! ^_____^
And I was always obsessed with the moon... <.<

This illustration is A3 big (normally I use A4). Coloration was done with copics mixed with my secret traditional media technique! XD

The idea for the illustration was given me from a friend, Lady_Raven. ^_^ She writes plots for my dojinshi from time to time and this illustration is dedicated to her! *_*

Edit: D....Daily Deviation? O_____o *faints*

PS: I sent this illustration to a calendar contest in Germany and... won. (Summer was so stressfull that I forgot to write it here... <.< My first illustration which I got payed for! XD *hugs Weird Visions GmbH* )
