Artist's Comments

A lot of emotion went with this pic. I've been on the emotional roller-coaster from hell in the past few days. I've been happy. I've been sad. I've been pissed. And almost everything in between. And I don't even know why!
This digital painting kinda distracted me for the past few days.

Sadly, today when I was finishing it, I was in a good mood. And then in the last few touchups, someone got online and started to really piss me off by bringing some things up I never wanted to think about again if I could avoid it. *Sighs*

Overall I am pretty happy with this pic. Until I had to put my watermark on it. Which meant I had to move a few of my fireflies around. And those fireflies were honestly my favourite part of this whole thing.

+Time: Several hours over three days.
+Music: Whispers In the Dark by Skillet, Mama by MCR
+Media: Drawing pencil HB, Millenium inking pens, coloured in PhotoShop

EDIT: 2/19/09 - I really shoulda done this in the first place. But the pose and such was inspired by *Goldenwolf's work. Credit is due where it is due. :P

I was thinking more than just a lot of emotion went into this. Something much darker is going on but I'm not going to pester at it. Wonderful drawing and definitely faving.

I have to say that the lighting in this is really, really good. I can tell that you've put a load of emotion into the entire piece.

Thanks, Lauren. I tried a few different things when I was doing the lighting. As you said, the airbrush is yummy. =)
