"pleasant memoryending upleasantly
even if i have the sweetness
it comes with the bitterness
at the end of the day
is it another memory to store away?"
***
My question is:
Will pleasant memory become less pleasant if it ends unpleasantly?
Because I just had a wonderful experience these last weeks, but the ending to it was rather disappointing for me. All of the sudden, that wonderful memory wasn't as cheerful as I remembered.
But then I compared it with another wonderful memory that ended nicely. ... I had no recollection of it at all because there weren't anything to remember but some comforting afterglow.
So ... ?
Info on the illustration:
Sketch: ~1 year old (Jan '07)
WIP time: >10 hours (I'm getting rusty)
Illustrator 10, no tweaking in Photoshop & no texture overlay because I like the smoothness of vector art ^^

I agree, the colours work well, and i love the expression of the girl

thanks! the girls' expression is rather accidental
i never intended her to be beautiful, just want her to leave a stronger impression rather than just being pretty.
