Description
An assignment I did towards the beginning of
the year.. it's sad really.

We were allowed
to bring in an object of our own and draw it,
no instruction, just to see our skill.
Since I had just decided to make a character with
bulimia, i decided to do some subliminal messaging.
( i'm a HUGE fan of subliminal messaging. o u o )

The Apple: the subject itself, but in this case,
my subject is vegetarian.
( as if thats not a HUGE hint of character > > )

The Scoring Marks: the aftermath of bulimia,
both physical and mental.

The Band-Aid: the cover up/secret.

The Fork: physically putting food into the subject.

The Juices: the phyical release of consumption.

I hate how she made me draw the
table in the background. = =
I much rather would have improvised.
But whatever. D|

This concept made me cry. |:
It's a serious issue guys.
I'd respect and would LOVE to hear
constructive criticism. (:

This is a complement, but when I first saw this, I winced. Just.... the wounds and that it's being stabbed and it's practically bleeding...it's just very raw, emotionally. Am I making sense?

I love the message for this I have a friend thats Bulimic and it is sad to see them do that to them selfs, and whats worse is my friends 'problems' gotten worse :s lovely drawing too.

I'm so sorry to hear that... : /
you know, part of my reason for
drawing this is to speak for those who
remain silent about the fact they are,
or know someone who is.
I know someone as well, someone very close
to me who's bulimic. It's so sad.
this is kind of my way of reaching out,
you know? to show them there's
someone who cares. (:

thanks. < 3

I agree, and the thing is once they have started it get's harder to stop. Me and another friend have tryed talkig to my friend (with the problem). I feel sad for them cuz there that upset and what not with there body's that they do stuff like that to 'help'.

No problem, hun C:
