Description
For the past week or so I have been in a real deep funk. Won't go as far as saying depressed but overwhelmed by the feeling of unhappiness. I sketched this out last night about midnight and felt that it was worth throwing up here.I wanted to capture how I've been feeling and this happened to pop out. No preconceived idea of what I was aiming for and was at the will of my subconscious.
As you see in the image, I am gripping onto one of the only things that make me happy, and no matter how hard I squeeze, it still feels like it is slipping away. What IT is, is not important, because it can be anything that brings you any kind of joy. And as you see, without that happiness and that "constant", I am nothing.
Along with my happiness I myself begin to slip away into the darkness, hoping to meet my happiness at the bottom.

I enjoy the colors more on this one, but i think the other conveys the message better, because of the colors. Either way its an amazing work.
P.s. Cant wait for more amazing works.

Reading your words add such a depth to this piece, it's beautiful in the sense that people like myself can relate to what you're saying on a personal level.
I think the grey version works better than the coloured.
I love the sense of movement you've achieved by the way you distort the shapes in his body- just stunning!

I agree with this version is more clearly illustrative (to us) of your "funk".
"Along with my happiness I myself begin to slip away into the darkness, hoping to meet my happiness at the bottom." -- Wow. Good way to put it. o.o
