Description
"Your skin to ash
Your bones to dust
Your soul to me."
To be honest, the start of the year is quite shitty for me.
I know there's worse, but I lost my job and the doubts for the future are back again.
The first picture this year should be something I'd be proud of. I wanted to challenge myself. Force myself to produce something that shows I can still do it.
I really had doubts I could manage to finish anything I start because I just give up everytime I'm halfway there. And that somehow became a general mental attitude of mine.
I approached everything upfront here - lighting, shading, atmosphere, background, clouds, color...always things that make me fail.
But I think that I - somehow - succeeded. At least I improved a bit, which is more than I expected from myself.
I'm proud of this picture (even though it's probably too dark again on most screens? Tell me please..). It was a lot of work, many many hours for stuff other people make in 6 hours or so.
But heck. At least I finished it.
For the people that I still owe art - I didn't forget you. Your stuff will be the next bigger projects I'll be working on.
Another thing that I decided for myself this year is that, after I cleared my to-do list, I won't load this kind of stuff on me anymore. No contests (at least none with art as price), no huge birthday pictures, no commissions (maybe one at a time or sketch commissions or whatever - but nothing big.) I just can't handle that pressure. Most of the time my to-do list just made me stop drawing completely (because I actually wanted to draw, but other things, and so I had a guilty conscience...)
So, like I said, I will finish your stuff asap, don't worry!
So, to end this, I hope you like this picture, feel free to tell me what you think and how I can improve (it)! : )
