Description
This drawing has Two titles because it has two meanings.Meaning 1:
"Brothers in Arms" Is something a watcher of mine at ~AskEddTheAstute mentioned these boys were. Though he didn't realize that I was making this drawing. The Ed boys are so tight together... no matter what faces them. Sure there may be a lot of arguing and fighting at times... but they're just awesome friends.
Meaning 2:
"ForeshadowEd Future"
By coincidence this art piece represents me.
Before I had to take Frosty to the vet, where he died, I drew the line art to this in school. I didn't realize that as I drew Each Ed, I was unintentionally foreshadowing how I would react to Frosty's passing.
Missery - Eddy: Eddy's just plain out upset. That is how I was when my gut feeling kicked in and turned out to be right.
Hope - Edd: But not without fear. I realized It was his time, and though I was on the verge of crying my eyes out, I felt like I could trust God.
Acceptance - Ed- So sure... my birthday turned out pretty rough and Frosty is now gone. But I know I can move on with a smile... and everything will be okay.
I guess that is just my own interpretation. Finishing this after Frosty was gone did help me feel a little better today.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, the line art (minus the bushes) was done traditionally on paper. All the coloring was on Photoshop. Not too bad considering I didn't plan out any of the background except the tree.

This is beautiful and even though I'm very sorry you lost Frosty, I'm happy you were able to use your feelings to create this emotional piece. I hope you feel better.

Thanks Arielle (Nyahahaha now I shall call you your name too!)
I'm able to stay calm on the outside.. but it seems here on D.A. I'm able to easily express my grieving, where as in real life I feel like I can't do it. One because I don't want to and two because I hate being a burden to others.
I'm glad you said it is beautiful. You have no idea how much that makes my spirits lift up.

You need to have an outlet for grieving whether it's talking things out or drawing or writing. Sometimes it's hard in real life, I, for one, hate it when people see me cry but you're seldom a burden when you do express it. I'm happy to lift them, hang in there, .

Yeah...
I remember when one of my friends read on Facebook about his Death she admited... crud. Dani is gonna be a bit of a drag tomorrow! And she was havin a rough day before... so the fact I kind of hid a lot of it helped her.
Here... you guys understand emotional outlets. Its just easier. Not saying my friend doesn't understand. She does, but I just didn't wanna bring her down.

Yes, sometimes it is a bit easier online then person to person. Well, you're a good friend to do that. Maybe you'll explain to her later?

Er no... She doesn't need to know that I struggled with grieving irl. It wasn't her that caused it, it just reinforced it.
