thank you Mr. Carroll for inspiring me through the ages...from my youth to my age of now....
"Alice replied, rather shyly, 'I - I hardly know, sir, just at present - at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.'
'What do you mean by that?' said the Caterpillar sternly. 'Explain yourself!'
'I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, sir' said Alice, 'because I'm not myself, you see.'
'I don't see,' said the Caterpillar."

LOVE THE HOOKAH... or is it? LOL Great idea and love this work.
Great image!
(And I'm SO glad the sparkle brushes are inconspicuous...).
I wonder if this was the source of inspiration?

A tiny bit dark for my taste but still a nice job.
Thanks for the comments everyone
CMYK I couldn't stand a very vivid sparkle but a little light was needed.
And ray, I'm naturally drawn to darker images and I am sure its a personal taste...but I like it that way.
And as for inspiration, no...sadly that did not inspire this piece but its a lovely work.
HEY THAT IS AN AWESOME SHOT RAY!!!
Author...I like the darkness of this shot. Not sure it would have the same appeal to me if it were brighter.
Author, I guess you know I'm not a fan of pre-made brushes, but just to clarify...I'm a sucker for a good Alice in Wonderland pic, and this IS a good one!
Who ... are ... you ... to create such a wonderful (pun alert) image as this! Just love the whole thing ... your lighting is great ... feels like being in another world ... down a rabbit hole perhaps?
I hope viewers will go into the hi res on this work to really appreciate how well done it is. GL
*blushes* thanks so much for the lovely comments. Coming from you very talented artists, i'm most honored that you guys like it so much.
I KNEW IT!!!! Nice entry! GL!
Howdie stranger!
