This has always been one of my favourite festive stories. I didn't want to add the scenes she sees - the christmas tree etc because I wanted to focus on her face and get the lighting right; and a gaudy tree would distract from the image I thought. So this would be the match she lights before she sees her grandmother. Link for story here: [link] It's quite sad, but bittersweet to me.
Poser 7 and lots of postwork in Photoshop.
Poser - Laura with Mel Blue, MFD and PC texture. KiriTe hair and morphing shawl with my texture. Brush for flames from redheadstock.
Very well done. I think the match flame is a little large for my tastes, but the character and lighting are superb. How did you do the blanket around her, in the cloth room or post? Anyway, very nice piece.

Step back, unbelievers!/Or the rain will never come. /Somebody keep the fires burning,/someone come beat the drum./You may think I'm crazy, you may think that I'm insane, /But I swear to you, before this day is out, you folks are gonna see some rain!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
