This is very pretty; I love the dreamy quality of it and the colors. But I wanted to ask why you made Miranda's hair straight and blonde instead of red and curly, as it is in the book. Not trying to be nit-picky, just curious :)

I am glad you like the dreamy quality of this one, I was hoping for that to come across. When I read the book, I thought her hair was a red/blond color, not true red. It was just my interpretation.

I saw this on the gallery for the book. I was really impressed with the work, so I was really happy to see it here. :3

Thank you, I forget the time, back then it was taking me a long while though, so I would guess 20-30 hrs. I was very slow at the start >.<

When I started it was very hard for me too. I had painted/sketched, but the stuff I painted my first year on the computer looked a lot like coloring book pictures >.< . It took me about two years of painting almost every day. Hang in there, it gets easier =) My first year, I didn't have a tablet, now that I do, that also has made it so much easier.
