Artist's Comments

yes i've completed it! :D i'm happy with this drawing, my gladness outweighs my complains lol.
..........................................................................................

Poem:
She was a naive being
Always carried the innocent thought
That life was always filled with vibrance and beauty
Positive feelings was all she knew

Then one day darkness and gloom rained on her
Just like how positive and negative always come together
Hurt and pain trickled through her veins
All the fears not worth her tears

Emotional roots tangle and suffocate
She sunk deep into the emotions
Scanning down to the very depth
Where she found a heaven that her beauty truely lies

She danced and swirled in the moods of darkness
Ignoring the childish spirits of others
Even when they grasp every means to taunt and slash at her
Once again the positive in her arises
Enjoying the fruits of Concealed Nakedness
............................................................................................
General Meaning Of The Drawing:
everyone has been hurt by others, including myself. everyday we tend to think and we look at our inner selves. even so, we are self-concious on how people might look at us from the outside like judging a book by its cover.

the significance of the hair represents a problem ( am example of many problems we face daily ), a trouble, a complication thus its tied into a knot. black and white represents good and evil. i believe there is nothin in between good and evil such as half good. it attracts like how positive with negative like magnetic forces. the white hair is generally neater and pure, while the black as you can see is rather disoriented and messier than the white hair, which in this case made the messy black hair disoriented. finally the hair black and white seperates, a problem, a trouble's resolved.

the background represents a lonely gloom, like clouds rotating like a giant whirl of mood she sunk herself into. its how i visualize a surreal form of how we look at ourselves from within.

it came out really good. you got the shading right and the pose and expression is awesome. the only thing i noticed is the really bright hand. but it really is a minor thing.
:iconpaulineaubey:
Wow, this is gorgeous! Love the background and the hair and the picture is good too: no blue tones...

thanks Jenni :D hmmn i did the hand light was particularly i'm not great at hands haha so i can command great shading even if its light. but i also wanted it to shine like the truth and positive feeling comes at the end ( the white hair flowing ) the hand touches and shines with it. i'll pay more attention however to these parts in the future ( i agree the hands looks kinda weird like that ha ). cheers! :highfive:
