Description This is a....I'll go ahead and call it "Master Copy" of a drawing done by GreenMangos. I will say I don't know what influenced me enough to make this, but.....what the hell. I saw the picture, and was struck from above with divine motivation to paint it, and even start a poem about it (The poem was started before this, but I'm stuck and don't know how to continue.)

The star of the picture, a Charmander named Char, is a pokémon who....answers questions with it "awe-striking and unbelievable" wisdom. I don't expect the little guy to like it as much as I do, but what can you do? I did my best, no regrets, and am satisfied (for the moment) with it.

The question he was asked in this picture was part of a....I guess I'll call it two part question. One question was what he enjoyed doing in spare time or whatever. He was answering cooly as he usually does and he mentioned swimming (then suddenly scratched that answer, saying he didn't like swimming. Makes sense.). Well, someone saw this and asked, how could he like swimming, in fact how could he even go swimming.

Well there's the answer. The picture of Char holding his breath underwater, and sustaining his flame. And the answer in text was "Just go with the flow." And it struck home and here I am.

Unfortunately all I can offer at the moment, is a not so good quality photoshoot of the picture. I will try my best to try and get it scanned somewhere once it dries, but no promises. I don't know how I would best go about doing that. If anyone has any suggestions to this, I would GREATLY appreciate them.

I hope you like my...fourth oil painting. The first three are at school, and I dunno if I'll photoshoot them or not.

Also before all the experts out there start commenting on how the tank would explode, or some other stuff like that.....Can I please ask you just go with the flow...? Heh.

I plan on possibly revisiting this in the future, and adding more to it perhaps...

Want more?

The original drawing actually came from another user by the name of GreenMangos. But yes, I am the painter. The texture could use some work, but I'm still learning. Thanks for feedback!
