Description "Back to where it began again...

Should have seen it coming.
Should have braced for impact.

Expect the unexpected, contrary to all hope.

My plea unheard, my calls unaccepted.
The times come full circle. This was my regret.

As I look onward, heart fading with the embers.

I can do nothing...

...but watch you go... "

Thank you Kimo. Your critiques are very much appreciated.

Yeah I'll have to agree on the hair portion to the left. I think I shaded it wrong to be honest. That or the light contrast is too great.

And to think I wanted to try more things with this. But by the time I thought to try them, I already was one too many steps ahead to go back and add them. Next time though.

Thank you again for the review.

You're welcome, Ulta. I honestly do take joy in criticizing work when I get the chance to.

In a few words,

DANG, That's impressive. You really did an outstanding job on the lighting on this one. The piece conveys a lot of emotion, even without the text. Then looking at the text I can see that in the picture so well.

You think? Hehe yeah I got a lot of help from Dan on this one as far as colors go. It sure is paying off!

Danny's invading other people's arts again...
Anyway, I love what you managed to pull of with this picture. I see this kind of shading difficult to use with great emotion (or maybe it's just me), but you've pulled it off perfectly here with this picture! Very dramatic... great work!

Thanks Em. I hope I can continue doing this with my artwork from now on. It's got like...the best combination ever!

I just hope it wasn't just a spontaneous stroke of luck XD

If this was Twilight, the following would happen:
Twilight: NOOOOOOOO!
Someone else: Hey Twilight, here's an Ice Cream
(Twilight Runs over and holds the ice cream)
Twilight: YAAAAAAAAAAY

SilverDragonBlood [2011-09-22 04:18:13 +0000 UTC]

This looks very nice, Ulta! The lighting is nice, the hair flows beautifully, and the small specks of light (presumably embers) floating around really makes this picture look incredible.

Hmm? What do you mean what song?

If your talking about the words in the artist comments, I just made that up on the spot. It's not a song. More like a spur of the moment poem or...something.

I was afraid to comment because I thought you were sad. But I really like the shading and the flickers of flame. Background is very compatible with this.

Eh, either way I'll find myself lost in my deep thoughts...like today, I fell asleep in class, eyes rolled back in my head, open, sleeping and dreaming about something stupid. I am strange.

This is very poetic Ulta. I have to wonder why you're so down though. Almost always, the artist's mood matches the work, and I don't like to see you sad...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Ulta In reply to Thespurgin [2011-09-22 00:29:47 +0000 UTC]

Kind of a spur of the moment that was. To be honest, I don't think it truly fit what I was feeling. I was just quite down. But it's okay for the most part now. I just got to be strong (would rather not say what happened though).
