Artist's Comments

I was feeling pretty down yesterday...
So I resorted to drawing to release my self from that awful mood.

It worked.

I really like this piece especially since it is like... the first drawing I have ever done to really express emotion.
Sure I've done emotional pictures, but never one actually to reflect my own.

I'm happy with the anatomy, since I did it without reference (major BIGGIE for me!) and it turned out ok.
I'm happy with the water, since I suck BIG time with it...
And I'm surprised I could withstand coloring it with sucky pencil colours - you know those that mothers buy their 3 year olds in supermarkets that if you touch them with a sharpener they fall to pieces.

To sum up : Me happy now. :D



P.S. I understand why people go to their "happy place" when their sad, but I still find it juxtaposing with it all. This is how I can imagine it - sure you get to your "happy place" but it doesn't change reality, right?
