Artist's Comments

I had this idea to try drawing a picture using only four flat colours. A while ago, I'd had a design class about colour and texture, where they asked us to find four colours that we associated ourselves with or liked in particular; these four are pretty close to what I chose. It's kinda interesting; if you look at my gallery then you can tell I favour these. =) Probably related to my way of doing too many sunsets...

Anyway, I went for a Japanese theme. ^^ The kanji "heisei" means 'tranquil'; that's pretty much the feel I was going for.

EDIT: A few people were asking for desktop backgrounds, so I've made versions for 800x600 and 1024x768 (Click each for the link)

Nice. That wouldnt look too bad as a wallpaper either, if you can be bothered.

Very nice. It sort of looks like an etching. I like the colour-use, too. Very serene =)

Very nicely done. It's always nice to see a color other than black being used as a feature in line work!
