Midnight Sun

(Edit: Back to working on it. Will be updated frequently with current progress.)

Initially this piece was inspired by Muramasa: The Demon Blade, But shortly afterward I was introduced to Owl city: Fireflies, which I instantly fell in love with and heavily influenced the piece to the point of how it is now. (This is of course considering the fact that I was listening to it practically throughout the whole painting process.)

Entered this piece in the Soundforms and Artwaves Contest.

Owl City: Fireflies -> [link]




"You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems"
