Secret Garden for LacyDrawers

I have done another collage, only this time it's definitely a mixed media bag. This is an image I did based on the lovely poem by (~LACYDRAWERS) "My Secret Garden". I commented on her poem that I would like to make a collage for it and she said, "Yes". So I did. I used fractals and stock images and images I pulled from the web. I hope I get all the credits right:

Night sky is from a gradient [link] by ~onthinair
Glitter curtain is a brush: [link] (This lady has some great brushes, check out her website site)
Gate is a PS brush: [link] by ~angela3d
Pool from [link] by ~fote-stock
Elf boy is an image of a doll from the web: [link]
Goblin is from [link] by ~ranmor
The following all came from the Fairies-Unicorns-Dragons stock image pack by
Fairy by the pool, Flying and Kneeling Fairies and Unicorn


The moon is from a photograph I took around my house a year or two ago.

Gosh, I hope I got everybody.

Update 02-06-2013 - I contacted `Shoofly-Stock and actually purchased the stock image pack that contained the fairies and the unicorn. So, I am very pleased to be able to offer this as a print because when you buy the pack you get the permission to publish and sell artwork made using any of the stock images from the pack. I'm so pleased that he has made his stock images available for a very reasonable price. He does some really nice work.

All fractals made in Apo 2.08 3D Hack and all postwork done in Photoshop CS.

Full view for detail (warning - there's a LOT of detail).

Update 07-06-09: Because of 's wonderful critique of this and a few things that I wanted to tinker with, I have uploaded a newer version. I don't think it changes the overall image much, just a few small details. Hopefully, it will have the same feel and impact.
