Description
You know what? You gave it your all. You were there for them on their bad days when all they could do was cry, and you were there for them on their good days when it was time to laugh. You put effort into what you did and for it too last that long--you succeeded. But life does not have an end; it is a constant process. Time does not stop for you, it does not stop for me, it does not stop for anyone at any time. You may be bruised and scarred but to give up is foolish and shows only ignorance in your methods. Have you not, just once, looked at yourself in the mirror and saw yourself a winner--someone who tried and tried as much as they could to make things work between you and the other? Although you failed to achieving your original goal, you opened doors that were closed within that process and you became more successful then you thought you would. Someone who was strong enough to continue walking when no one else could, someone who climbed mountains and hung onto cliffs to pursue happiness for another--and you'd give it up? To think you'd give up a thousand other chances because one speck in the painting of life has failed you; as if one puzzle piece determined the whole picture. Wrap your wounds in bandages and get up and walk on--continue and love as you've done before...and always give your all, no matter what. That way, you know you've stayed true to yourself when everyone else lagged behind.

A wasted two hours that could of been used for sleeping...I didn't know who else to use so I just used Cobweb...guess it sort of matches my mood anyway~

I need more happy images in my gallery.

This piece is gorgeous in many ways and the description for it is very true and beautiful as well. The mood is set perfectly. You are what I'd call a true artist because your pieces portray inner emotions and still look like this piece.
<3 Cob was perfect for this

I love this. Pretty citeh. |3 The color in the water, city, and darkness in the bottom make this picture worth looking at.
I hope everything is alright, on the other hand.

Thank you so much <333 everything is fine; some others are going through problems though and I didn't know what character to use. I figured I don't draw Cobby enough anyway so I just stuck with her.
Thanks again <3

TwilightInu [2008-06-21 13:52:24 +0000 UTC]

I love this so much.
I've always had a thing for cities, and I must say that I the way that you drew this one. *clings to it*
The light reflecting onto the water looks amazing, too. It brings a very nice touch to the piece!
After reading the comment you made on my deviation and looking at this, it looks like we both aimed to create an art piece with our characters sort of... outcasted. In yours it's definitely more apparent, though. Cities are supposed to be so happy and full of life, and then there's Cobweb all like ;o; across the river.
Ahhh I just love this, so I must favorite it.

For some reason, I love seeing canines in urban settings... Like Oliver and Company, lmao. The mood of this picture is great, and I agree with Kesame's comment. I don't think I ever told you how much I really like Cobweb's design. I'd like to try and draw her someday, if that's alright :] Maybe we could do a trade?

fatakita In reply to mindforcesbody [2008-06-21 21:54:36 +0000 UTC]

Same here! That's why Cobweb is a stray dog so I can play with it (although I don't really all that much, like I should). And thanks again about Cobweb's design.

I'd love to do an art trade with you. I love drawing Kannon's features and the markings were fun (when I did that gift art piece for you and Kita). I'll have to clear up some of my trades now, but I'll surely let you know when I'm ready.

Lexay [2008-06-18 17:27:49 +0000 UTC]

This only took two hours? Wow your amazing. Your one of the few artists I know that really put some effort into the background. Most people think its the character that matters, but the background is what makes it a true piece of art. This is just amazing, I love it. Keep up the good work <3
(P.S You didnt waste two hours! Look at the beautiful thing that came out of it! <3)

Thank you! And yeah, two hours...disincluding the sketching process. And thanks again--I know a lot of artists who don't do backgrounds but I like doing them sooo :3. I'm glad you love it, and thanks again (yeah I say thanks a lot).
Ahhh I could of been sleeping though.
