The wishing tree by Chromattix

Something for everyone, and Myself in the spirit of My first Christmas on DeviantArt. And what represents this time of the year than the classic Christmas tree.
I was going to make the lights all white for a more formal look but decided that colourful lights look more cheerful and theres bound to be a colour that everybody likes shining between pale fronds of magic. I was even considering making it into a Christmas card even if I have to wait 'till next time.
Drawn in Photoshop alone with a mouse

Merry Christmas to all !

The wishing tree by *priteeboy is one that I've come back to again and again to view. I've liked this image for some time now and felt this day would be perfect to share it with all. Even if you do not celebrate Christmas, we could all use a Wishing Tree. Happy Holidays. ( Featured by JunkbyJen )

Can I please use this picture for a layout design?

Chromattix Featured By Owner Nov 30, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Sorry, don't like my work being used for that stuff

PixXyAngel Featured By Owner Dec 2, 2012 Student Photographer

She already did use it and has not removed it after reading that you dont allow it. That's quite rude in my opinion.

This is absolutely adorable~ I'm kind of reminded of those icicle lights for some reason.
At this rate 80% of your gallery is going to be in my favorites. D= Haha. I love it~

Chromattix Featured By Owner Nov 11, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I like those types of lights. Wish my family bought e'm for our house

Fave away, it only does good for both of us after all

^{Hi
Would you mind if I put this on my front page for the holidays?}

Chromattix Featured By Owner Dec 19, 2009 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Well, you kinda did already

BUT I'll say yes only because it does link back to mine like a feature anyway

Frelly-Is-Kelly Featured By Owner Dec 20, 2009

^{Lol, I'm sorry.
I was testing if it would work then I forgot to take it down.
Thanks}

JKL17 Featured By Owner Dec 8, 2009

It's so pretty *_* I love how the colors reflect onto the white tree, and I love the details on the bark and in the branches *3* I also like the star at the top and how the light above brings your eye down to observe the whole work. A very simple concept but you made it unique, I like it a lot ^^

Chromattix Featured By Owner Dec 8, 2009 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Thankyou, that's all I was considering and felt was needed when making this actually...keeping it minimal but make what actually is in there as detailed and convincing as possible

JKL17 Featured By Owner Dec 9, 2009

mhm, it worked really well : D

theofficialbucka Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009

Awesome!

JonnyJK Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009

Gorgeous! How long did it take you? I'm so bad @ digital stuff....

Chromattix Featured By Owner Dec 6, 2009 Hobbyist Digital Artist

This one took around a few hours...maybe 8 at the most, most of which was spent on the leaves. I could have done it faster if I had a tablet at the time lol, but I had been doing this for years before even this one here, which is years old by now already

Starshine9268 Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009 Hobbyist General Artist

dude, this is absolutely beautiful!!
AND YOU DREW THIS WITH A MOUSE!??
*faints*
love it!!

Chromattix Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I certainly did, I found a way to replicate the pine needles relativly quickly (still took a couple of hours just for that) but there's ways around lots of things by mouse with some inventive thinking

but I agree I'm so glad I have a tablet now, I could have done this twice as fast with it

Starshine9268 Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009 Hobbyist General Artist

sometimes slowness is what creates impressive pieces of artwrork - one of my mums pieces is done entire in dots and that took her six months and the result was wonderful
btw, i raided you gallery and

a head of your stuff lol
its just soo spectacular

PheiChi Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009

Pwetty *_*

RatPackSwaggaH Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009

beautiful

CrashRX Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009

That's awesome. Really. Like what someone else said, it'd be really good for a Christmas card

Chromattix Featured By Owner Dec 5, 2009 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Thankyou, I'm actually pretty sure I made this a greeting card available through dA

some say I should try to get it published as a store-bought card too, but I wouldn't know where to begin

dappledpictorals Featured By Owner Dec 3, 2009

ooooooo. pritee... haha.

pardon the jab. it was the perfect moment.

i like the tree. i have always had a thing for trees, especially christmas ones.

they are just so beautiful. Happy Christmas

Chromattix Featured By Owner Dec 3, 2009 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Lol, thanks! Trees are one of the few common, everyday things that I never get tired of looking at, and yes - these days people are getting more creative with Christmas tree's too and they get more beautiful every year
