Dream Gathering 2014 psychedelic flyer

Hey everyone! I’m back to Thailand after 2 years away from this land of smiles and gorgeous food)). Today I’d like to share some of my art with you. It’s a flyer I did for Dream Gathering 2014.
Here is the flyer’s sketch. I have already made the FB page’s cover and the guys from Dream Gathering wanted to continue this fairy theme so you can see a repeating pixie character and mushrooms.
Here is the artwork.
But after I’ve made it guys asked me to remove the black moon behind the logo. Below is the filial version. Still I find the previous design more attractive ‘cause there is more depth in it.
Here are some stock credits. The fairy photo can be found on DA. The rest (shrooms, ladybug, moon) came from sxc.hu.

Anyway it’s a matter of perception)

However, it’s worth mentioning that among customers one can find a good one who hasn’t been spoiled by marketing and allows using a transparent background :)
