Feel at ease

Close your eyes, and you are there...

Gentle breeze touches your cheeks then soothingly flows through your hair...
Under the calm surface of the water are river fish swimming enjoyably...
Various kinds of sweet tweets tickle your ears,
and tranquilizing murmuring of the stream eases your mind...

I used to go to such streams in mountains in summer season when I was a kid. It was fun swimming in the clear water and having barbecue aside. Usually the water stream's so cold that we used it to chill watermelons and drinks. It was fun...
I used that childhood memory as the theme of the picture, combining it with fantasy.

Everything from sketch and lineart through painting and effects done on Photoshop 6.0.
Hope you like it.
