I've been meaning to update for about a month... I apologise for being so slow in getting the art up after I've made it.

My first new piece is a Fernando Alonso wallpaper. I found the photo about a month ago and knew I had to make something with it. The lyrics I've used don't really mean anything, other than the reds in the wall were making me think of "hot" and "fire" (plus Fernando is quite hot in the picture ;)) The lyrics are just some that are in a Boyzone track that I was listening to at the time and I was drawn to them

Textures/Patterns: weapon_icons, Moargh.de, tokyo.disparue.org, Roserascal, Lookslikerain & Hybrid Genesis
Brushes: The Magic Box
Lyrics: Boyzone - Nothing Without You

The second wallpaper is of Chuck & Blair from Gossip Girl. I love Chuck and Blair and I've always felt like they belong together. After episode 17 I couldn't resist making a wallpaper from the episode.

After about a week I finally have my website back! I don't quite know what the hosting company managed to do to it... I found it very stressful, but it's back now and that's the important thing ;)

I couldn't resist making a wallpaper of Fernando Alonso's first win in a Ferrari really, could I?! I'm actually really, really pleased with how it has come out

I've also made a new LiveJournal layout. The banner used in the layout can be found in the banner gallery and the layout itself can be found on the bottom of the LJ Layouts page. I have included a zip file of images for the layout, if anything is missing please let me know and I'll add it!

I hope you've all enjoyed the start of the F1 season and that you like the art!!

I had to make a wallpaper of Fernando Alonso's first test for Ferrari, didn't I? I guess there will be lots more pictures once we finally get to the first race (in 29 days?) but I couldn't wait that long ;)

I've also made some new icons. I've done 14 of Fernando Alonso, 8 of Raquel del Rosario and 5 of Gossip Girl. They're here if you want to check them out!

I have another new Fernando Alonso wallpaper for you all. Only, I couldn't work out which version I prefered so I've decided to share them both. I wasn't sure whether I prefered one version over the other because I'd spent too much time looking at one or because it is genuinely better so I've decided to add them both for you to decide.
