Description
Every artist has a blue period. I guess that's mine.Inspired by a beautiful song which evoked a beautiful melancholy in me. Okay, this was supposed to be a portrait of a yet unwritten scene between Jeremy Fisherman and Cocaine of the continuation of my novel "NEVER" (the prequel of which is coming real soon, actually), but I kept adding more and more personal elements to it, and by the time I'd finished my picture it had become so personal and honest I felt that, in the sense of my art being soulstripping, it was the equivalent of getting caught with my pants down. I know, it is far from perfect because I didn't even bother making a sketch with a pencil in advance. But I still feel the feeling.
In a world where sometimes you cannot find an exit even in your own mind, in a world where hearts don't grow back, the cold consolation is that someone else might be lost along your side, and together, you can mutually play the rescuing game. Or, just make sure they never, ever find you.

Oh, thank you... but it isn't me, really... it's more of an image that I adopted at the time... of course, things change, but what we've been through sticks with us, no matter what...

Far from perfect? Madame this is GREAT!
As a matter of fact I didn't even realize there was no pencil outlines until you mentioned it.
It's a beautiful piece as all your art is.

Wow, thank you... so much, really. As for the pencil, I guess you can tell by the crooked and uncertain lines... And I'm so not good at drawing kids.
I appreciate all of your endless support.

Thank you so much. This really does mean a lot to me. You don't have to worry about the comment, I suppose that, although the picture contains an emotion, the emotion is so unclear there is not much to say about it I'm glad you liked this one, I really am.

You're welcome. I'm glad it means anything at all.
And I suppose that works out well, an unclear comment for
unclear emotion.

Of course it does. I do appreciate that some people still care, even after all this time I wasn't entirely here.
I suppose it does, yes I'll probably paint the emotion again when I've figured it out
