So, the original drawing was done in 2006 [link]

this drawing and also the painting was all completely done for myself and nobody else. i drew what i wanted to letting my mind wander as i drew, and again, as i painted. the anatomy is horrible, because i wasn't paying attention to make it look right, i just did what FELT right and what i thought was beautiful. the character here is also androgynous.

and when i drew it my life had been changing into something completely different. the desciption touches on that a bit.

now that my life and how i feel and think isn't the same anymore, i'll probably never forget how it was. the kind of mood the colors on this create is a place i crawl into as often as possible. it's easier to bring it on with my favorite inscence, something i used to burn alot last year. also, certain songs, and above all, the rain. i'm afraid after awhile i wont remember anymore. so i desperately try to hold on to who i was, as it slips away.

done in about 8 hours total, mostly tonight, over the course of a year and a half.

Photoshop CS3 and Painter v.2 with my Wacom Intous.

frame is stock by :icondustyoldstock: my new favorite place to hide.

then you'll know the arms weren't something i was concerned about for a reason and on purpose and neither should you because of that.

Oh my gaw!!!! Looking at that feels so familiar...If I could put how I feel when I listen to music into art, It would look like that. I think I just fell in love with you a little bit ::joy::
