Iyaaa, I'm finally done with this! //throws confetti
It was really fun! I don't even remember the amount of time I spent for this anymore. It was worth it!

So, yes. It hasn't been that long since I've started on digital drawing, and to be honest I was panicking at first.
I wanted to improve more than anything, and I actually overworked myself over it. But then I figured out that that I don't even need to panic. Entering contests like this, and constantly drawing is what improves me, and as long as I enjoy doing it that's more than alright, I guess! xD

Right, so back to the piece. To be honest, I fell in love with Lumi's design at first sight. I like the fact that she's supposed to be an expressionless and mute character, who's unable to convey her feelings except through music yet her outfit is surprisingly very bright and colourful. The gap between the two is something I can't ignore, hence giving me the idea to draw her this piece.

At first, I started the composition on a whim, not really thinking anything, I wanted to draw a pose where I would be able to draw her outfit entirely. However, when I started sketching, a sort of inspiration kind of hits me. Lumi is a character who is able to convey her feeling through music - it's an undeniably beautiful concept, yet I had the thought of what she feels when she's not conveying it through music.

When there are things she does not want to convey, does she shut it in? Or does she convey everything, the bad ones and good ones altogether without fail? At those times, what kind of feeling would she feel? Would she feel drowned in her own thoughts, yet not wanting to let it go? That kind of questions swirled in my mind as I finished this piece with this concept, hoping somehow, I would be able to convey Lumi's feelings.

Well then. See you again Lumi.
Live strong.
