Artist's Comments

Listening to the Jonathan Edwards's "One Day Closer"
two songs on here especially always make me cry, here is a quick illustration of one of them.
shi-paint with color adjustment in photoshop. done with all texture and line, no airbrush or brush or anything. just a quick doodle, really, to say HERE I AM!!!! I tried to capture in this really thier expressions and their faces, they were young and beautiful and in love once and i tried to capture that, no matter how long ago it was.
more tomorrow, and less emo.

Where do I begin to pack up my things
And move away from what might have been
Was it in some song that came out all wrong
And yet we both tried so hard to sing
I'll pack my guitar
I'll leave you with the car
I hope it won't be too cold to start
But I must get going
The kids get up at dawn
And this is sure to break somebody's heart
(Chorus)
Now, when did we grow this far apart
Love was forever at the start
But now it's come down to sticks and stones
When did we go wrong,
When were we not strong
And did we try hard enough to care
It's cold as hell outside
It's just as cold inside
Now that there's nothing left to share
I'll pack up my books, linger with last looks
And I'll throw them all in my truck and drive
From these sticks and stones
And the lies on the phone
But I hope all that you want will arrive
(Chorus)
I'd better be on my way right now
I'm bad at goodbyes anyhow
Now it's come down to sticks and stones
(Chorus)
When did we grow this far apart
Love was so kind to us at the start
But now it's come down to sticks and stones
I'd better be on my way right now
I'm bad at goodbyes anyhow
Now it's come down to sticks and stones

Coolk^^i think it has a something special that reminds me of the middle ages or of the Roman Empure...All in all,it;s a fav^^

You are, as usual, great at rendering facial expressions. I expecially love her hair and their mouths (you know I'm a sucker for details!).

(Btw, I didn't know the song but the lyrics are cool.)

An onion ring is not the wisest choice for a horcrux.

Blowing your stack adds to air pollution.
