Description now.. this is a quite personal piece for me.. It started with a topic from Sketchoholic..'Ghosts' (Daniela Strijleva interview's contest).

I was going to create something comedic before but all of sudden memories of my granma came back to me. She passed away quite a while ago but I still remember how devastated i was that time. I tried to pour all my emotion into this one.. which resulted in a really depressing weekend. It was really exhausting both mentally and physically when I did this drawing - the sad music that I listened was making it worse too.

I'm glad to be able to finish it - it's quite a relieve in the end. I miss both my granpa and granma.. I wish that they're both in peace and happy somewhere .. sniff..

The fact you made me tear up just called for me to comment. I wish I could tell you how close this picture hit to home with me: seriously, it's so lovely. I'm so glad it got a DD or unfortunately, I might not have ever seen this.

Thank you for drawing and sharing this beautiful picture. It is filled with such sadness yet it is also heart warming. I'm sorry to hear about your grandparents, though.

Seeing this reminded me of my grandfather who was taken from us without warning. I still miss the way he would have a hand full of coffee candy and would take us around the park. Even if I wasn't his biological grand daughter he still loved me no matter what.

I have tears in my eyes right now, I haven't cried in such a long time. Now I can remember the fun times I had with grandfather . Great job on this fantastic piece!

cinix-soul [2011-03-30 00:00:29 +0000 UTC]

I seen this and had to comment. I feel most of the times when a loved one passes, survivors don't really think of the joy the deceased can have when passing. Whether it be they're "going home" or going into the other world with their family. This piece absolutely captures what I believe to be what happens at the "end" of our existence here.
Our spirit LIVES on, but we're just done using our "shells" for now.
ABSOLUTELY amazing work, I love it!
