i love this art and how it was made.
This thing has gotten to be an icon, it's difficult to see on a computer screen.
I remember the drawing being paired down and almost amateurish while the color is luminous, magical. - Waterlillies, Monet, a similar approach to drawing where the intent is clearly color, atmosphere.
You, my friend, are a Lucky Dog.
