NOTES ON EPISODE ART: CREATED 03/2003 ~It was tough work reminding myself that "less is more" while working on this one. There were so many purty b/a images to play with, Angel's dream wedding, dancing at the prom, etc, that the temptation to cram them all in was quite strong. But at its core, this episode was about letting go, and so in the end, I managed to convince myself to stick with the 2 "post-break-up brooding" images the show gave us... then I filled in the center with the lovely shot of that church aisle leading out towards the daylight/future Angel fears in his dream and various other bits and pieces of scenery around the edges.
