An idea 2 years in the making ... Well maybe a year and a half.
If you look at the bottom of the entry, you get to see the original draft that i did roughly September/October 2005.
Obviously there are some changes (like switching Spring and Autumn to make them go clock-wise, as well as some pose/idea changes), most of which i think are for the better - yet some elements of the original poses were done better than this finished one, haha. Such is the catch 22 of the artist - the drafts often turning out better than the planned works! (Which isn't very true about this piece, but you know what i mean).
But anyway, i am very proud of how this came out. Everything in the image was considered with great care and placed specifically. People tell me that i blab too much about my works and that i should let others draw their own thoughts and questions from it. So i am shutting up now.
Tell me what you think, and ask what you would ask (if there's anything you wish to ask, i could just be bloating my head a bit, hehe).
Here's the original sketch in one of my 5x7inch sketchbooks:
