All that sappiness aside, you have to know by now how much I love this. Even watching your progress through the incomplete stages, I had no doubt it would turn out simply beautiful. I’ve respect you as an artist for years and the pieces you’ve done for Somewhere in Between have been amazing. I think though, as much as I love those, this piece goes far beyond that. You’ve taken your skill to another level – what used to be simple (and simple doesn’t mean ‘simple’ by any means!) portraits/waist –up shots as evolved into two forms in motion.
I ove everything about it, from the color choice, to the striking details, to the smallest details – like the pointed toes. As a daughter of a dancer/gymnast that’s one of the first things that jumped out to me, along with the curvature in her wrist – it’s all deliberate and not just random hand placements. Again the background (love the Klimpt-esque approach) and color complement each other, working together; the dress is a stylistic take on the ballroom dress…and I like it better (let’s face it, it was a tad short *cough*) Her dress is a mixture of canon, ballet, and a hint of Latin ballroom.
Again, I can’t say enough about your art – but more than that as someone who’s been an encouraging member of the fandom – and to me personally in all my stories. This challenge wouldn’t have been the same without you. You are much loved (and much missed in some areas ~_^) Thank you again, you taking part mean s so much to me. There are certain people that fandom wouldn’t feel right without, you are definitely one of them. Thank you!

Even better, this piece is sort of a big thank you to all of my friends that I met through this fandom. Even though I'm not very active anymore, I still love you all and I wouldn't be here doing stuff if it wasn't for you all. <3

It was actually kind of a pain coming up with a look that would stay true to the original costume while looking enough like something you'd see in a real ballet -- for both characters.
I'm really glad it worked out. Squall in tights would be hilarious.
