Too many strings tied to my heart

Started this sketch at a particularly low point in a very bad day. I'd been feeling like this for... some time. Not a good feeling.

Scanner butchered my purple paint because it was a meanie face.

This is probably my favourite of your work; I just love it. The concept and the execution thereof are spot on, absolutely wonderful. I'm just sitting here gazing at it.

The symbolism in your pieces is always amazing ^-^ In this case, I very much like how defined the strings are, and how entangled with each other they are. Your shading has gotten even better (if that's possible!) - you get such definition and precision, and the way you use several different colors really adds depth.

I love what you can do with water colors. Like F-allen said, the wings seem detached. I think its probably because the outline of the characters back is dark. But I love the veins and texture of the wings. The abstract form of them is very cool. My fav part would have to be the heart strings. They have a very delicate and soothing feeling in them. Cool piece.

Thank you very much for your delicious comment.

And yes, I had a lot of fun with the wings. I see what you mean with the outline on the back, I'll have to keep that in mind in the future.

I really adore this piece because it is symbolic, and emotional.

I could go on about how awesome it is, but I shall stop.

My only distraction is how the wings seem to blend into the background, and are not very prominent.

BUT BUT BUT.

TWO THUMBS UP!
Great stuff

thank you very much for your comment.

Now that you mention the detached wings, I see what you mean. I think I didn't want to ink them because I wanted them to be delicate, but I see now how I could have done that a bit better.

I'm glad you enjoy it so much!
