cepums In reply to hybridconcepts [2007-05-15 18:34:04 +0000 UTC]

well.. as i said..
i was trying to depict a friendship with one person..
but in general it's about how good it feels when in the darkest situations of your life there is some one like that little bug.. even if it can't actualy help.. it still makes you feel a little better...
so.. the moral is.. we shouldn't avoid asking if we can help to people who are in truble.. even if we can't help.. just asking can make them feel better.. at least a little bit
be nice

Another great piece. I really like the texture of the wall and the shading. Do you use only color pencils?

I see a lot of your art illustrate some kind of moral or lesson to be learned. This is similar to Aesop's Fable: The Lion and the Mouse. "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted."

cepums In reply to blu-paws [2007-02-25 11:25:32 +0000 UTC]

hmz.. i didn't thought of that aesops fable.. but i gues you are right it just shows that those fables are realy about what happens in people lifes.. since this one is simply depicting a moment in my own life
tnx for reminding me about that dude.. i think i should read those fables again
as for color.. i don't use colored pencils..here you can see how it's done [link]

thank you
well.. i drew it for a friend.. just to show that i appreciate what she's doing.. so it's partialy alsow a self-portrait..
but that's the best part in using symbols in drawings.. some people understand what i mean by them.. and others ponder they own versions

Morigalaxy In reply to cepums [2007-02-24 00:15:28 +0000 UTC]

even though we have the choice of pondering on our own vision, but i still like to know the artist's true view, because their view is the first. ^_^

but i get what you mean.

reinlady [2007-02-01 13:45:36 +0000 UTC]

As I spend more and more time on dA, I'm beginning to find that it's often the simplest pictures that get most emotional response from me. The lack of (or at least reduced amount of) background detail really allows you to focus on the emotion or the idea behind the piece. This is a great example of that.

The torn out heart, the IV, the noose and the restrains (in my interpretation) are very effective symbols for the various pains we go through just from living. I like the contrast between the size of the beetle and the various symbols of pain. Still, it seems the beetle holds its own in support of its friend A little help can sometimes go a long way.

What I thought was a nice touch was the bright, happy yellow of the little beetle being mirrored by the upward (positive looking) yellow balloon. It seems to represent a little ray of hope growing in your man from the offer of help. Overall, this is a beautifully simple work.

(P.S.: I really enjoyed all the other images you thumbshared, but this was the one that leapt out the most. It's a great series that you're creating.)

thank you for your grate coment.. and i'm glad you found it intresting enought to fav it

as for the bug having the same color as baloon.. in fact i didn't think of it in such symbols.. to be true - i just ran out of colors
yellow baloon in my works usualy depicts dreams.. something that is higher then simple goals.. and in this case holding it with teeth while being stuck in such position is alsow one of those pains.. maybe not something that holds you back.. but even not leting dreams go can be quite uncomfortable..

tnx again for your time

ahmm
this one gives a kinda confused feel...

wen i look at the guy.. i feel pathetic.. it feels, its better to die than go thru the needles and the pain..

but then i look at the little meek one.. and my heart goes... "Awwwwe"

but i like the over all feel of it...

best wishes for you and your friend
