Description 色を失くしたこの街で 白い鴉がずっと見ていた
けれど僕はいつかきっと 色を付けていくんだ
たとえそれが一色ずつでもいいから…

(蜉蝣 → 白い鴉)

In this town that has lost all color,
a white crow was watching all along
Surely someday I will revive this place
Even if it's just one color at a time...

(Kagerou → Shiroi Karasu)


Seemed like a very November/March, going into/out of winter type of drawing. Other types of transition/metamorphosis/change (of nature, of self, etc.) are also involved.

9" x 12". Watercolor & ink.

I still absolutely love this

You probably don't remember me from Ohayocon Saturday, but you told me I was the first one to buy this print from you hehe. I am shy in person so I didn't really get to tell you why I liked it so much and thought I would take the chance to do it now!

My eyes were instantly drawn to this one and your other piece: [link]

I just loved the way you drew your figures, your use of color, and the whole J Rock feel to them and several others just made my eyes happy The flow and beauty in your images, even when the subject matter is on the morbid side is still so pleasant to look at and just overall beautiful <3

LOVE your work and VERY honored to have met you at my first anime con!! I can't wait to see what else you have in store!

I remember~ :] I like it when people buy my newer art; it lets me know they like the direction I am moving in. :3 So thank you very much for taking the time to let me know what you like about my work more specifically~ ♥
I really like working out a balance between visually pleasing and slightly morbid, and I've been playing around with giving my drawings "a Jrock feel" without drawing any musician in particular-- Not sure for how long I'll keep it up, but it makes me happy to have someone recognize that without simply going to the straight-out Jrock fanart. :]

I think you do a very good job in keeping that balance! There is an artist that I have been following for years that I really love, and with her it doesn't seem to matter what she does, its always amazing and blows you away. I think you are a lot like her, it really doesn't seem to matter what your subject matter is, its how you pull it off and you do it in a very stylish, unique way.

I am excited to see everything you do in the future

Lovely concept, and the limited color palette shows great restraint, it's a beautiful piece.

I like how fluid it is, how one thing goes into the next. It has a good feel. I also really like the muted colours--watercolour was the perfect medium for something like this, imo. Great job. <3 I absolutely love it~

Ah ^_^ Because I used that as a name for one of my characters in a story I am writing. He is a guy, so of course he is teased for it xD

I really like the name, 7loved57 the way it sounded when I found it originally, so I thought it was awesome when I saw you had it as well ^_^
