Relaxing Autumn Walk

In the middle of Autumn, Leon on Kiki take the afternoon off to spend some time together appreciating nature. They walk through the forest, amidst a collection of trees with bare branches, and mounds of multi-hued leaves piled high on either side of the path. They breathe in the fresh Autumn air, rich with the aroma of bark and sap.

As butterflies float past on an unseen breeze, Kiki points to a large one in surprise as it flutters past. The butterflies, with their pairs of beautiful blue wings, create a feeling of magical light-heartedness in the forest, lighting up the evening in bursts of colour.

Hours together amidst the trees is just what Leon and Kiki needed, and they feel far more relaxed because of it. They leave the forest as quiet and untouched as it was when they entered… except for a single tree on which they carved their names :wink:

That 5.4MB .jpg will go down to less than 1MB if you do Image → Scale Image To New Size at 50% and Export as .jpg with 95% Quality.
You could upload that resulting 1920 x 1080 image here with no problem.

It’s 3840 x 2160 tho, which is about 1MB too big for an upload here

I think I’ll re-save the image, but at slightly smaller proportions. I’ll create a copy of the .kra file, and shrink the canvas by about 20%

This is amazing!
Although which brush did you use for the clouds?

I think it was Bristles_rough2 (with light pen pressure)

This is the brush pack:
