New Page

This is the next page for the Piano and the Boy story which I am working on towards entering for next year. Took me a while to work out how to portray something at night time because everything is normally in daylight. There is a outerglow on the window as well to show the light emanating out but also to show as if something magical is coming from the room, lighting up the night.

I've changed the tint to a more of a brick look and muted the light, the text also has a small shadow because it didnt stand out on its own.
