My first artwork

My friend made her first creation as a special gift to me. Although there were some flaws that need to be improved, I'm actually appreciated it. Besides, it does remind me of my first time doing artwork. I've never shared those banners anywhere else since ppl would cry out to see them. However, the worse they are, the more appreciated I am to go through such a long progress and learn how to be better.

If anyone were curious abt it, I'd like to public one of my first banner in this entry. It was created on Nov 18, 2005 for my dearest drama "Green forest, my Home".

How do I describe it ?

Firstly, I used to come up with good idea but don't know how to express it. The lay-out looks weird with 2 "big head" in the middle. Secondly, this banner gives the feeling of blur. Both model and background, even the text, are all dim. Last but not least, there is none of color adjustment which is unacceptable in any professional artwork. At that time, I had no idea regarding blending mode or color balance.

I would like to thank anonymous ppl who willingly share unlimited tutorial on net.
Thanks to special member of dienanh.net that give me precious experience and comment. I've been learning a lot from you all.
And this is one of my lastest creation up to now. Pls note that she's the least favourite character in the drama. It means that I strongly believe there will be great one for my beloved Changqing - Zixuan hohoho (jk :D)
