Description She wears her hair down over her face, you ask her why, and she shows you. "I've never showed anyone else before". Then she tells you what she saw to changd her inside and out.


You're going to have to make up your own mind what she saw...
I was just musing on how what I've seen has changed me, and what I've been through has shaped me, wondering if there was a physical sign of our lives on our bodies, what it would look like... I remember checking for grey hairs after a particularly frightening incident some years ago, I suppose we do get scars as we go through life, and tattoos like your own chosen marks. Mm.

I wanted her to look youthful, innocence lost, cute and creepy at the same time. The eye was really enjoyable but a challenge, wanted to make it looked like it was ripped apart and the the cracking extended outwards. Sorry, I know this isn't my best work, I don't have any extra time to dedicate to 'perfecting' at the moment, this kind of fell out of me upon musing about an upcoming event anniversary...

She wont tell you her name, so you call her 'Spider'. She likes it.

Peace, love and creeping people out,

Is it guna be another mad rush to get all these new pictures critiqued before expo? if so challenge accepted

On a personal note it really starts to make me wonder what happened to you or what you saw to make you go through that dark part of your life. I would never expect you to tell me, i say this only because i don't want you to think that i'm trying to get information out of you but because i think about people and believe i should be honest and open about what i'm thinking, if you ever did tell me it would go to the grave with me.
Part of me really hopes it wasn't as anything as bad as what my imagination can conjure up but part of me knows it would of had to of been pretty bad to of made you feel so low which makes me sad but seeing your resiliance to it is so refreshing, it's great to see. It truly inspires us and gives us hope for the future that there is some way out to carry on no matter what. Well for me in my dark patch your artwork and your bright personality gave me some sort of hope as i thought this was the end of me this time even if people around me didn't know these thoughts which i'm only really expressing now.

The Yin Yang is always spinning and this balance will always be in the world. There will always be bad but there will always be good to come out of it always! Everyday i try to help and show people there is always hope or light at the end of the tunnel and fight to keep some ray of hope in this world to people who have lost it one day it might actually get me killed but if that's the price i pay i'd rather go down fighting for what i feel is right then to leave this world not to of done anything to help. Anyway sorry to go on you know how i go on and on haha! We will resume our regularly scheduled programming after these short messages "Insurance?! call 085..."

Alright Let's go! a few bits in this one you said your self it wasn't perfect sometimes (perfection is not what you need to achieve though )  but didn't point out what you didn't like so i'll just go over everything as always.

I guess the first bit would be the eye which is in pieces at first i thought ok broken like glass i get it then in your description you mentioned it was supposed to be torn. I was guna suggest had it been glass that maybe a few smaller shards of glass should be there to make it really convincing like if you got a pane of glass and drop it on the floor look at what pieces you get from that flat smash. The edges on it don't give the impression of torn maybe if there was some sort of torn fabric pattern around the edges if you really look close at some cotton fabrics when torn it looks pretty sharp edge but close up you see the little edges. What might of been cool to do is look at spider webs (since her name is spider) and put one of those designs as the iris with each piece with the torn edge really would set the meaning torn to pieces. Next bit would be the neck the back of the neck would be smooth there seems to be like bump or a smudge there? which then sets the rest of the neck and the join between the head and neck to not make it look right. Next is the left shoulder (her right) at first i looked at it and thought that the shoulders were wonky but knowing your art your not guna make that bigger mistake so i looked further into it and put myself into the position she is and worked out the muscle position and saw what you were trying to achieve. I feel if you had only put a bit more shading in on the  bottom of the muscle or in the corner next to the neck it would of made it clear what it was. When you feel your shoulder you have your clavical then a little like ditch then the muscle.

OK here comes the good bit! Once again love the soft style of the brush really works! the idea is great everything is so well drawn. I love the idea that the iris is broken not the whole eyeball love the steering away from cliches i like how the scars look on her face very realistic love the fact some of it goe son her lip i would of likes to of seen it go on her nose too but that's just me the hand is fantastic (how excited can someone get over a hand?) it look so real and well drawn it really add's the depth to it it works well with the face no issues there what so ever. It is kinda creepy i like that about it really gets the balance of creepy and an innocent girl who has been hurt i think people always try to over do the creepy in these sorts of pictures and it doesn't give you that realism. It sort of reminds me of Korn album covers if you look them up you'll see what i mean.

Anyway for now i'm signing off i shall be hopefully buying this one at the expo when i see you next!

Hey, thanks for doing this. I'm more familiar than comfortable with her situation, and I recognised her at once.

In fact, she looks a lot like someone I drew once... Anyone noticed that she smiles very slightly? I like Spider.

Makes me think both of something from my childhood, and someone who promised me the world despite my brokenness and promised to give me what I lost belief in, only to break me even more to the point of destruction in this part of my life now.

Sometimes things are so unique and special people have to make fun and it. Sometimes it causes people to lose all thought and the need of finding out more infiltrates themselves. Spider does suit her, and the need to know more grows on and on. No matter how much you make up about her story, you'll never truly know her. Wow, that's the deepest comment I've ever written!   In other words, I LOVE IT!!!!! Keep on drawing!
