“Oh, my, GOD! I am so glad finally be done with this one! I have been working on it since early JULY for crying out loud! It just kept taking a back seat to other, more important projects, and I lost the initial spark of enthusiasm that started the piece. But it’s done now, and I’m even sort of happy with how it turned out.

I always kind of wondered if Fluttershy ever really let loose, if there was ever a time when she just did something without a care for what might happen, with no one to see… That, and I wanted to draw a cool-looking shot with tropical ocean water in it.

This is a companion piece to my earlier picture of Twilight, showcasing the rainbow power form. (Thus the extra markings in Fluttershy’s coat and feathers.) “
