Description I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
Taking on the world, that was just my style
Now I look into your eyes
I can see forever, the search is over
You were with me all the while
Sirvivor - The Search is Over
Listen it here: [link]

Dedicated to ~l6visyda without this piece and tens of others in my gallery would not exsist. A person who I, maybe, have taken too granted and not shown her the support and graditude she really deserves for being around.

I have no words to describe what I have been feeling lately but I have had no motivation, no wish nor will to make any manips. I even have had time and tons of ideas but I just could not open my photoshop and work on image. And I am sure after the first try, I would have trown this away unless there wouldn't have been those people around me, who all thought I should continue and like a miracle this image did manage to come up something that I feel I could upload in my gallery.

The story.. I adore the song. If there has been anything good coming out of watching American Idol, then that I found that song. The presentation there was quite awful but I could not my mind from the lyrics.. How many times we have been searching for love, friend, comfort, support or strenght and after long search realize the people from who we find it all was standing besides us all the time we were just too blind to realize it? How many times have we been trying to cope with our problems not realizing that shared burden is half the weight to carry? And how we sometimes forget those people around us are not for granted.. All those thoughts were the reasons that pushed me torwards making this image.

And even if the song talks about finsing love.. we are all seekers in our life.. looking for purpose.. looking for place where to belong.. and I feel very lost lately.. without purpose.. without knowing why I am even going on.. and I like to think maybe that was her story too - not knowing her place in the big puzzle, living for a dream.. wandering and dreaming.. looking for beauty in the dark.. and I think the answers she was looking were all with her from the first moment.. they all were hidden inside her.. tha magic comes from our heart.. and I think I tried to capture the happiness, realization that she can live in harmony with herself.. capturing the peace, joy.. of realizing the endless search of answers has ended and all she ever wished is around her.. those little butterflies try to symbolice those answers.. those things she was looking for..

I can only hope I will find my answers soon..

Have you ever heard the first stanza of John Donne's "Song: Go and Catch a Falling Star"? that's what i first thought of when i saw this.
so pretty...

"Go and catch a falling star
get with child a mandrake root
tell me where all past years are
or who cleft the devils foot.
teach me to hear mermaids singing
or to keep off envy's stinging
and find
what wind
serves to advance an honest mind."

the rest of the poem goes on to talk some other stuff that's not as happy, but i really like the poem lots, so your picture made me really happy!

A gorgeous piece depicting so vividly the search for your own place under the sun and the happiness of finding it. You`ve captured her joy and the magical feeling around her so believably that the whole image carries away the viewer into your, and in this case hers, magical realm of fantasy, imagination and dreams. And yet again, the backdrop is beautiful beyond imaging

Simply exquisite! Kadri, I do believe this is some of your best work yet. The whole piece has such a wonderful atmosphere, the sense of discovery, the almost childlike innocence of the girl in her moment of simple joy, and of course, the adorable little glowing butterflies I find in so many of your pieces. Everything about this image radiates happiness.

Ahh, I always love your work.
I love the expression on her face... of just pure unbridled joy that isn't held back. So beautiful... I love how you use blues in your work, it makes everything look misty and beautiful.

I agree about American Idol not being good... xD

I hope you feel better soon. Remember, finding the answers isn't the important part... if you found everything you wanted to, what would you have to live for? Searching for it all can be the greatest adventure.

mm. I haven't watch Americal Idol until this season.. so I do not know much.. I just had nothing better to do and so I started to watch it.. not that my favorites never made it far.. and Scott.. (whatever his last name was) was voted off after thing song too... so.. I really think I am not much into those relaity things and competitions as I do not know why to watch when my favorites are gone.

SilverShadowess In reply to Iardacil [2009-05-08 17:59:48 +0000 UTC]

I watched it about three years ago and two years ago. I'm always annoyed when my favorites leave, too... and I think it's kind of sad how it's sort of a popularity contest and also the judges can be so mean.

SilverShadowess In reply to Iardacil [2009-05-11 21:57:27 +0000 UTC]

I haven't been watching this year, but my mom has and sometimes she has me watch with her... her favorite is Adam. xD I think a lot of people like him. He certainly is a good show man.
