"Light the fire, feast
Chase the ghost, give in
Take the road less traveled by
Leave the city of fools
Turn every poet loose

Howl
7 days to the wolves
Where will we be when they come
7 days to the poison
And a place in heaven
Time drawing near as they come to take us..."
-7 Days to the Wolves, Nightwish


Well, this picture has taken a long time and has had several incarnations. I was originally inspired for this piece at the beginning of the summer when I was driving home after work at the kennel and this song played on my stereo. To my luck, that exact same time =Tw1stedTruth-stock posted this stock image the same night.

Originally this was going to be a late summer piece, with the background being more alive. It eventually evolved into this, a belated Halloween/Samhain piece...sorta. I dunno, I like it, so that's that. And I think my computer's glad that I'm finished with it finally. You know you have too many layers when your quad core processor is taking too long to render the image. ^^;
