Description OMG! This took me ages. I was working on it sporadically. Once again I got so bored of it by the end I just rushed… TT_TT

The theme of this picture is ‘anime mafia’ it’s a competition entry. I probably won’t win and I’m not sure when the deadline is, hopefully I’m not too late. I really suck at art.

The bg is bad again. I really neglect on the details. I have university entry to worry about right now, so DA really has to be my second priority. Stupid UCL who asks me to do an UCAS task, so extra, I just want to get the interview done with. Err I have to produce 6 A4 sized art work based on 6 moments of my daily life. This stinks… ;_; life is hard enough without this trash. I have to get an A in art and 2 Bs in my other subjects in order to go to Manchester, harsh but at least they don’t want me to go for interview. I want to go to Manchester. Norman Foster was from there XD, he’s my idol! I so want to be a mega architect like him. The Beijing’s airport he designed is just too good. I drooled when I saw it on the TV.

I’m doubting my worth at the moment. Is going through a depression… I don’t think I am good enough somehow, I feel dead, really dead. I rediscovered Naruto. I had the anime for about 2 years now, but I never really watched it properly. It’s frightenly good and deep. When I first seen it I thought it was like DBZ, another boring fighting boy anime, but now getting underneath the surfaces, it’s like another world. The character depth is amazing and it scares me that I can relate to them so much. I’m reading too much sasunaru fanfics TT_TT somebody stop me! I just find the relationship between Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto fascinating. It’s so weird, normally I don’t really like these kind of pairings, err, I mean I just go for the eye-candy factor when it comes to BL pairings, but this pairing is special. I can’t make up my mind about whether Sasuke and Naruto are lovers or not (they’re too young to understand anyway), but they defiantly have a strong bond. It’s weird, bit like me I guess… stupidly weird *sigh*.

Err… sorry about the jumbled thoughts, I don’t even understand them myself. Hope you liked the picture thou.

The pic is nice really I think it's more like being 'unfinished' than being 'bad'...

maybe u r not in the mood, that's all... So don't get too stress about it... All artist r bound 2 feel the same thing once in a while ^w^

I don't think anyone has a certain value, coz each is special & each has its limitless worth based on their personalities... \=/ u may not know it now but it takes time for one 2 find their so-called worth... Whereas their existence in the world is already one in a trillion... =3

Heyy, you're awesome! I can see how you may have rushed the colouring a bit (although I love the pattern on the shirt), but the composition and drawing itself more than make up for that, it's really good!

And good luck for your uni entry too! I'll be getting my uni offers in less than 2 months time (after I finish my exams) too! XD

"I’m doubting my worth at the moment. Is going through a depression… I don’t think I am good enough somehow, I feel dead, really dead."

I feel like that all the time. I suppose you kinda get used to it after a while... but at the same time, I really hope things get better for you.

You are a wonderful artist who I have a deep amount of respect for, far better than me in many ways. I'm a lazy bum who hardly gets any work done, and when I do, it usually ends up pretty bad. And that's without a job, hardly any school, and nothing else in the way. However, you are juggling many things together and STILL do more art than me, and make it look nicer too. You have an awful lot of worth, if nothing else, then to me. So ganbatte...!

Norman foster does some amazing architecture... there's one he'll be doing in Dubai.. which is supposedly gonna be the tallest building in the world.. forgot what the name is though.... For me, I follow Tadao Ando... His work is so 'silently' beautiful... Good luck and all the best for all your applications

Tadao Ando is fantastic too. i especially love the Church he did. his architecture is always so musical, in a silent way. it's a the music from your soul. *sigh* one day, i wish i can be as good as them
