Finally some new art!
I’ve had an artistic block for a little while, especially with the traditional art part. So I decided to take a break and kept busy with my guitar. But there’s only so much playing you (well, I) can do before your fingers start aching…so put the guitar away and decided to pick up on my digital art stuff. I started on this piece months ago, but would always feel stuck when I was working, so I could only do a little at a time, because I either had no idea of how to progress or I had way too many ideas circling like a psychotic cycle in my mind, making it hell to make choices. But yesterday and today while I’ve been working on this, it all just made sense. I just knew what to do, how to do it and it all just came together. I’m quite happy how this one turned out too 
“The Sky’s the Limit”. You’ve probably heard that expression a few times already, and growing up (especially throughout high school and then university) you’re bombarded with the “Follow your dreams, reach for the stars, wah wah wah….” Type of mantras from parents, teachers etc. It sounds so pretty, as if following your dreams means choosing an easy path and then everything is all peach and roses and pink elephants on a sunny day. Right? Well. So we try. We fail. We (hopefully) try again. And then while we’re trying, 90% of the time people will think you’re being a fool for not getting a “real job”, for not giving up on something you keep failing at, for not being “realistic” etc, when a lot of those people were the ones encouraging us to pursue what we want in the first place. So…with that in mind, this little creation was born.
