Description
This is loosely based on a drawing I made back in 2002 named "Before I Lose Everything", after a song from the now disbanded Mighty Man and Yuk. But instead of making the same thing, I gave it a bit of a happier tone. Here's the link for the old piece: [link]The smoke bubbles idea was taken from that time back in 2002 when one of my friends thought that she could make everyone in our group quit smoking by giving everyone a bubble maker. (She followed the logic that we'd be too preoccupied to light a cigarette while we were busy making bubbles.) A few moments later, one of us lit a cigarette and blew smoke into some bubbles. They looked so nice, everyone else lit up and no one was able to quit smoking.
Anyway, Happy New Year to everyone!

I have been admiring this for a very long time. It is perfect. Everything from the girl's childish gesture to the soft wash of buildings to the peeking trail of lanterns is essential. No element is without purpose in this piece.

aaw thats so emotional and well mooded~
especially with that nice story about the smoke in the bubbles^^
and i like how you did the background
(not that the foreground is bad, its more that the background looks nice thought it isnt so important and often gets not enough attention)

this is beautiful, the love the background. I can't believe you don't have more comments on this. The mood is so nice and solitary, feels like a very complex piece.

Wow, everything about this is amazing. I love the colours you have used, they remind me of not white balancing properly with a camera to get nice effects. The story behind it and atmosphere are fantastic. I really like your style and the finish of this, it's so polished. Really nice work!

Excellent use of color and texture in the background; it looks like somewhere I'd quite like to visit. I image there'd be many street musicians and a lot of cute cafes. (:

I love the color, having the line art and the sky the same just makes everything flow very nicely.

I really appreciate you including a link to the piece that inspired this one. It's great to see how far you've come (and it gives us all hope too!). I love the story behind it too - I wouldn't have realized about the bubbles otherwise.
The depth in this piece is great, with the pale yet intricate background and the boldness in the main subject.
I love the fact she's in a wee sailor outfit and the cats dubious expression.

Again, thanks for dropping by.
Oh and speaking of how far I've gone, here's my first photoshop drawing (sometime in the late 90s) ---->[link]
That was photoshop 4. (I feel so old)

mmmmmmmm.
i love your use of red instead of black - not only does it make the colors badass, but it's incredibly poignant and atmospheric how the range of shades doesn't extend to black... exactly like an overcast night lit by ubiquitous streetlights ;] (fav)
