Well, here it is! My entry for =ValaSedai's Magical Spring contest entry. I worked on this for half a month and finally found it to be of a satisfying result. I don't know if I"ll be tweaking it anymore before the deadline...but I finally decided on submitting it. This probably took me more than 20 hours total, since I remember working on it none-stop for the first two weeks and finally toned down to work on it slowly for the rest of the time.

Spring is the time for flowers to blossom and for things to come to life. And along with flowers and life, love can blossom too.

Here's a rundown of elements, if anyone is interested in reading:

The angels in the center aren't any particular characters from any stories of mine. I just randomly came up with their colors. The girl is supposed to represent the Spirit of the Night, and the boy is the Spirit of the Day. The orb of light the girl is holding is supposed to be the same light in those lanterns, however, the light becomes a different shade in direct sunlight.

No spring is complete without flowers, so I have the pink blossom tree in the night and the five-chrome flowers in the day. The slightly more detailed flowers in the grass were all individually painted in. I decided to make a special flower that is a circle in the daytime, a bud in the dawn and/or twilight, and a half-moon in night-time.

The water from the spring is held back by a magical rainbow, and there's a lovely mermaid in the water. The lanterns add a nice mythical glow to the night.

In the daytime area, you can see fairies and sprites. There's a butterfly fairy and a dragonfly fairy, and four sprites. Two of them are in the tree, one of them is sitting on the flower in the water, and there's a male sprite sleeping next to the magical sword in the rock.

And last but not least, I'm very proud of the ethereal spirit dragon and phoenix I added into the sky.

Well, I hope all of you enjoy my entry! :D I tried my best to capture spring in a magical way.
