:EDIT: Dude! I forgot that I was 16 when I did this! So weird. Yeah, touched it up with water color pencils a FEW YEARS back - haha - and finally got around to taking a photo of it earlier today... The colors are much more vibrant now!
I wanted to crop the top of the circle off (the one created by the angels and demonds). I think it would have looked better and given the apperance that he was breaking their circle with his light. But, I figured that I should leave the piece in it's original form. It's been years anyway.

Hope you all like the update!

This is a Narrative art assignment I did last year and had to be done with acrylic paint. Nearly a year later, I decided to take it out and fix up the things that I could with my colored pencils (they are godly tools). If I had the wanting to do this again, I’d be sure to properly place the characters from the beginning (Ex: the angel’s big fat glowing left wing is interfering with the demon hands), and make sure that the light beams surrounding the centered angel and demon DID NOT look like a waterfall…
I focused more on getting the right motion out of my brush strokes than I did on the shape, which I usually don’t do. I don’t do these kinds of things very often, I’m more of a cartoonist, so this was quite a nice and interesting change and challenge for me. I learned that Acrylic painting is fun, you just have to be quick and not let the little details and imperfections get too you too much until you’ve neared completion.
The story happening within this picture is like "Romeo and Juliet’s". A forbidden love; can't mix stripes with spots, Angels with Demons, blah blah blah. The aim was for it to be like a scene from a nightmare; with all the hands slowly pushing their way through the swirling masses of the goopy, rubbery like substance that they’re all stuck in the middle of. Each side is reaching out to the lovers, to separate them and take each back to their own kind; a protest against them being together you know. But, DUH, they don't want to settle for that, and are fighting back! Well, the Angel man is at least, the Demon girl is just being a frail female "Hold me, and never let go." - funny, her being a demon and all.
My point here should be obvious, but if not; it shouldn't matter what color or race you are, a person (or any creature) should be jugged by the content of their heart and character. And that's how we should all determine the value of others and their positions in our short life times.

Mah! The deed is done and fulfilled to my best.
ONWARD HO!
