Description
Entirely drawn in Photoshop, reference only for hand holding glass. All brushes used were free for everyone to use for any work, i just don't remember where i got them fromSEE DETAILS HERE: [link]
So, finally i can post something i worked on with effort and emotion. And it turned out how i wanted it to. Let me try to explain this:
This drawing combines three of my favorite songs.
The first one is Gravstone Love by Bullets & Octane.
-One in the morning, i got my hands upon a few scatted pictures
I got my lips stinging from cocaine and whiskey
the lonely picture is of you when you left me
saying goodbye again, but i never do-
These lyrics remind me of nights full of party and alcohol, trying to numb ones feelings, sadness, thoughts. Who doesn't try this at times, but it never works. Usually you get home and you feel you made it worse.
The Second Song is Lily by Aaron.
-Lily, take another walk out of your fake world
please put all the drugs out of your hands
you'll see that you can breathe without no backup
so much stuff you got to understand-
Simply made me understand that what i wrote about song one never really helps, and that there usually is another way. might say the girl is how i pictured 'lily'.
The third song is Unbroken by Killswitch Engage.
it's also what the tattoo says.
-fear is failure, and this is my motivation-
One of many lines that helped kepping up my positive thoughts for a pretty long time. At times i feel like i fail at being a student, a daughter, and most important.. a good friend.
I think at some time in your life you have to face your own failure and make a decision. You feel pain, everyone feels pain. The question is, what do you do now? Do you turn it into sadness, depression, despair? do you give up? or do you turn it into anger, new energy and the will to change things, to do better next time?
I'd like to dedicate this work to important people in my life, the people who help me make my choice all the time. i apologize for all the times my thoughtlessness put you into situations you shouldn't have been in. And I thank you for being patient with me and forgiving me stupid behaviour. I couldn't think of any people better to party with, to talk to, to chill with, to fool around with.
thank you for being my friends: Annette, Flo, Nina, Jessica, Nelson and all the other ones who have to stand me, you know who you are.
I love you.

Wow. Great image with good thoughts behind.
I like the colours you used, the pose, the meaning (I definitely feel it, having a hangover right now, meh... ).
But there's one thing - I think something is wrong with her forearm, seems a wee bit short?
Anyway
