Description 113 Themes Challenge ([link] ) : 097 Solitude

Solitude, with patient ear
Eager souls shall wait to hear
Echoed spirits whisper near

Kindred calmness to receive
In a world which I believe
Nevermore shall need to greive

Gentle days of Solitude
Searching peace away from feud
Often best in self seclude

Lost to me the worried sigh
In the past when wished to cry
Time has, silent, passed me by

Untold, secret troubles moan
Dreams away, to me unknown
Evermore I sit alone

Thank you!

You were right about the hours, but not days...none of my works ever take more than a day...(unless I procrastinate and put it off until I feel like starting again. But it's still less than 24 hours.)

I always find it very interesting when you associate one of your beautiful drawings along with one of your meaningful poems. There is always such depth in both, and once associated it really takes an insightful meaning.

Fabulous use of green tones here, they bring a kind of calmness to the overall atmosphere along with peaceful beauty. Moreover, picking Zangoose up to illustrate the concept of solitude was quite unexpected, I would say, since Zangoose is usually depicted as aggressive and always on the move - this being said, you did very well in depicting it in such a unusual way, so that was a risky choice you were not afraid to take - and you were right.

Again, you are excellent at creating specific atmosphere through you great coloring skills and combination of colors, for which I admire you.

, I 'm still a big fan of your work !

Thank you, FieryWithin, for this amazing comment! It brightened up my day, even though I haven't replied to it for weeks, and I apologize for that.

I didn't know Zangoose were usually aggressive. I've surely seen it in pictures, but I suppose I never noticed. They were always quiet, thoughtful, and fuled by a burning hatred of Seviper in my view.

But thank you so much, FieryWithin,and I hope to hear from you again!

I love Zangoose too. I think it's because of that glare, actually.

By the by, I like your icon! (esp. that Zangoose.) Judging by your name, you would be a Zangoose-lover too, correct?

I have a zangoose custom-made shirt by my friend, a zangoose figurine, a zangoose zukan, all the zangoose english cards, and I competitively use a zangoose

Zangusu In reply to Cskia [2010-07-21 04:13:47 +0000 UTC]

my top 4 from 1st to 4th would have to be:

zangoose, shaymin sky forme, wartortle, quilava

wartortle and quilava always switch around though xD

what're yours?

Cskia In reply to Zangusu [2010-07-21 04:22:38 +0000 UTC]



My top four, in whatever order, are: Lucario, Zangoose, Mightyena and (sometimes...) Pidgeotto.

I refused to consider the legendaries because that would be really hard to compare with...

maybe it was the movie that swayed my opinion.

That could be true. I haven't watched those awesome movies for such a long time...

Do you have a favorite movie? Mine is Lucario and the Mystery of Mew.

Dude I really love the mood on this piece... the setting is very lush and vibrant but it still gives off a quiet, introspective feeling, really cool. The blues that you used in here to add shadow look great and, being a traditional media piece, the texture of the strokes really add a lot of character. Very nice!

The grass was, I think, the hardest to get right, with the grassy texture and colors...

Yeah I can imagine that, but you should be happy with it because it turned out really well.

Ama-Encyclopika [2010-07-18 05:59:18 +0000 UTC]

Wow, this is really great. The background makes the piece so quiet, and the expression of Zangoose and the fact that it is the only figure in the piece really captures the title. Again, awesome work!
