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.
Artist's Comments
Woo! It's finally done. This piece is a real shocker too. Why? I'm actually HAPPY with it and it has a background that I didn't half-ass!!
 This piece was mainly to experiment and see if I could pull off a marker/colored pencil mixed media piece. I've used acrylics to do a wash and then used colored pencil on top before. But I hate the wait time so I used markers to do the same thing instead.  It also makes the colored pencil rendering take less time. I had planned on doing a different subject for my experiment but remembered that I've been meaning to do this idea for a while. I wasn't sure I'd ever actually get to put it on paper if I didn't start now! Like most things I do, it didn't come out exactly like I'd planned but still, I am very pleased. Especially with the background. I knew I would ruin the piece if I didn't plan and spend time on the background after spending so much time on the figure. So I managed to convince myself to work up a nice background. I have no idea what that crystal is. That's just how I envisioned it initially. The kanji on it means 'fire.' I chose it because I like fire (I'm not a pyro), kitsune traditionally use foxfire, and fire is my element. There is no significance to the number of tails she has. I just wanted to do more than 2 and 3 fit nicely. Medium: Marker 'wash' and colored pencil Crits always welcome. Just because I'm happy with it doesn't mean it's perfect (and I know there are mistakes). |

let burn the flames and through the fire shall souls be cleansed, through suffering we know of joy. for without sadness how can one comprehend happiness? there would be no basis of comaparison and thus all emotions would be the same. a bland existance.
