I focused on the cloths (the figures of the characters) more - I think - than anything else, that I lost myself in imagination. But really, I think that I had some good ideas that I portrayed to be interesting. If I am to be proud of one thing it's that it is a completed work ...I think. I'm proud simply because I usually don't finish anything when I do somehow gather enough craze and inspiration to even think of drawing something that I try and make plans to complete as an extension of my imagination. But then again I did do it this time and that's a possibility for change, sure maybe I had my girlfriend eagerly wanting it and a new site (DA) to display it on which helped out with the motivation, but that doesn't effect the fact that change is there; ....no, wait, I already changed! this is my moment of rebirth! (He dramatically turns and looks out the window; there his eyes notice the glare of the sun reflecting off the rain on the tops of trees and roofs, birds gliding and flapping through the air signing their songs to their unborn and young. His attention refocuses on the tree directly beside his window, a nest with one small egg sits inside alone, suddenly it breaks open, new life spawns, afraid; he takes the life cupped in two hands and raises it toward the ceiling, "THIS IS IT, THIS IS ALMIGHTY, LET ME FEEL THE POWER! ERRAAAAAHH-", his girlfriend stand up from his bed half dressed and slaps him, "feel any better?", she questions raising her eye brow. Tears still running down his face, he replies in a whisper, ".....It's so beautiful"
(Edit: Little over a year later, May 9, 06) I did not draw often. This was completely experimental and I was determined to finish. I'm usually a procrastinator and a perfectionist and just plan lazy, so I never finish anything that I start. This was a symbol of a movement in my life, for better things to come. For art to unravel.
My cock-eyed glance shifted upward as my tongue involenterilly fell out of my mouth remoisturizing dry drool. "I saw a liddle birdie once," I laughed retardedly to myself unable to keep from sluring. I slid back down grining stupidly in self contentment, "heheh, I'm special..." That was the last thought that entered my tiny brain as a slipped into a deep drug induced sleep under the window of the insane asylum.
..... I feel like that sometimes...
Congratulations on you're finished work. I have the same problem with finishing things.
When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

I love it when you go off into your own uncharted imagination. I excites me and provokes me to try and do the same for myself... You are amazing.
