Artist's Comments

Is it selfish to have a dream for only your happiness?
I've always wanted to fly,
To defy the laws of Physics,
And soar my way through that endless sky of blue,
Weaving in and out of clouds,
With the breeze combing the locks of my hair.

{edited} I tried correcting all my errors that :iconjohnyume: suggested. Thanks, Bunny-chan. I hope it looks better.

Today, my lecturer of my very first class threatened to put a firecracker in my mouth because I said he looked like Borat.

This has nothing to do with the picture. But it's nice to know, even so.

Dedicated to Doreen, because she keeps me motivated.

This took very long to do, even though a reference was used, mainly because I lacked time and abandoned it for a while. There were a lot of things that went wrong along the way and at one point, I got so fed-up that I just deleted everything I painted on the boy... except his converse shoes. :) Then, I got to repainting it.

Aside from the hand looking a little wonky *coughlazypigcough* I'm quite happy with how it came out.

Suggestions for improvement will be warmly welcomed. :)

Artwork belongs to me.

Art and music are the two most beautiful languages in existence, they were meant to be together. They create a euphoria, a euphony, a lingua-franca. Not everyone can read or speak this language, but everyone understands.

I love the colors you chose and the serene sense of floating the picture gives off.

The shading in his crotch area looks abit like he spilled his coffe on it(or peed).XD But other than that, the colors chose for the picture, even in shadowing, are very lovely. Great job!

MIHO-CHAN!!

Hee hee, thank you. Yeah, I know it looked weird but before that it looked even weirder, like he had roots growing on his pants. XD

I really, really love this piece xD The concept is lovely and the stars and the pose you chose for it :heart: You really have so much talent! I saw this and thought "Who am I watching that dose stuff like this!?! D8 " lol

Since I said I'd do perfectly honest critque -- here it comes xD The only way I see it lacking is that some parts look a little unfinished. As a thumbnail it looks perfect, but up close some of the details are rough. The major areas that need work would be the hair highlight (they don't all taper) and the wrinkles on his pants. I think either using a very fine or soft brush and paint the details in more -- or smudging will help with those areas.

While it's not as noticeable (to me at least) his right hand and foot are a little under developed. It's not a big deal, but it could be better. Shadowy silhouettes can be a plus if done right. I would either define his hand more, or change the pose of the hand to make a more recognizable silhouette. I think the foot just needs more shading, as of now it's a bit flat.

Other than that, it might be good to use a different textured brush for the clouds. It's realllly hard to get good clouds, but with the right brush it can be done (or smudging or both lol).

So honestly when all is said and done, it's beautiful -- but it will be drop-dead-gorgeous if you really refine the details. And I KNOW you can do it :D

Try to take the path less traveled
Cause you cant rewind a moment in life
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday
Every second counts cause there's no second try
So live it like youll never live it twice
