Description
Contest Info: Ahem-- This for 's contest.... now for teh description XDMy character Turu is the main subject in this picture becuase he is my mascot, and my favorite original character- thus the character that represents me most. As you can see, he is holding a wound in his side but he is able to look up and see this white butterfly with wings that light up the dark. Turu smiles at it despite the pain that he is obviously going through because the butterfly is a sign that there are better, more beautiful things in the world than pain, pity and sadness. The butterfly then represents hope.
This relates to me because I am going through one of the toughest times in my life right now-- But I know that there is a light to illuminate the shadows of this time. I have my loved ones and my future dreams to live for and that keeps me going strong and happy. My family, friends and love are my white butterfly and the events happening in my present life is my deep wound. But the butterfly is brighter and the wound will eventually heal.

Oh, the colouring is just impressive and it's so beautiful. But I'm afraid of butterflies (don't ask why) and anime. But it's my problem, not yours, which means your art is just as good as ever.

Wow! Great symbolism, which is often forgotten in today's world. After all, symbolism is often too difficult for most people to understand nowadays. Poor you! You need a and there is one from me. I especially like the mysterious glow around the butterfly, reminding me there's always light in the darkness.

I absolutely LOVE the lighting in this, and the cityscape in the background is hauntingly fabulous. <3 Poor Turu. ;_; But that's such a sweet little butterfly. It's excellent that you can draw parellels in your art with your reality.
Btw, great job with DD.

This piece really touch me in my heart thru the wise usage of negative space to focus our attention on the main subject looking intently on the bright object floating in the middle of the air. The hopeful eye and the expression of the moth coupled with the tiny teardrop really sets the mood for this artwork and suits totally with the title plus your description.
