Description I know what lies beneath, I've seen the flash of teeth,
conspiring with the reef to sink our ship.
the wind's a cheating wife, her tongue a thirsty knife,
and she could take your life with one good kiss.

Can you see the sky turn red,
as morning's light breaks over me.
Know tonight we'll make our bed,
at the bottom of the sea.

I know the ocean speaks, I've heard her call to me,
and smiling in my dreams she whispers this:
(the stars retreat behind their veil,
the clouds are clinging to your sail,
the storm is coming, can you see?)

Look and see the sky turn red.
Like blood it covers over me,
and soon the sea shall give up her dead.
We'll raise an empire from the bottom of the sea.

for *irishstepdancer 's contest. Also some personal art that is very close to me; please don't crit.

her tail makes me want to roll over and die.

Why does emotional art suit your style? Because of your use of space and color.

The background is so dark, and with that hint of red, it really gets the main point across in the pic. Also all of the space around Aiolos lets the background colors become more overwhelming, further enhancing their effects on the viewer. And then the main subject of the pic is illuminated, and even though she's off to the side, your eye is immediately drawn to her. That's when this pic really comes together, though, because now you see her expression, and that, coupled with the background, is what makes this picture so powerful :3

Ah, wow, innit that something! Damn, the look on her face and that menacing, looming background. . .QUITE an emotion, I say. There's something really great about that blood red sky. . .It's beautiful. :'D The whole picture is, especially poor ol' Aiolos, of course, she's shaded great. D: There's a Visine for that. . .?

'Welcome! Ha, yeah, they're eerily gorgeous. o: Are they even possible in real life, the closest I ever see are pink-ish and orange ones, never pure red. DB SHAME.

I don't know if they're actually possible... I hope they are though. Cause I just added them to my 'see before i die' list. xD

Horribly nightmare monstarsss can be in a good mood and still qualify as unhappy I suppose? |D FUZZY WUZZY ISN'T HAPPY.

They better be. DB< But we can always just put an emo on a biplane and have him MAKE it possible. Then emos would have a use, painting the sky red with their wrist blood, hooray!

Nuh uh, Fuzzy Wuzzy is so friggin' happy that he can't even smile. ]:

The filesize for this one is so large that it took my old computer 30 minutes to load under full-view. D:

-cough cough-
Oh but Aiolos this is so very lovely; nothing is quite as touching as some emotional art. This one here is very powerful- very strong. I like the contract between the red, blue, and gray. I must say that Aiolos' bright white-ish color stands out perfectly against the dark background. Very nice~ <3

I wish you best of luck in the contest!

thanks, again~

Ah, I agree with Nyliir. Emotional pieces are your cup of tea. =3

A very strong piece, with the combo of the scenery and her emotions. The blood(?) dripping from her eye and mouth are a very nice touch.

And I LOVE HER MANE<3

Yes, blood. :3 It sort of looks like...her brain popped or something, seeing as her eyes were originally green. haha.

Thanks so much! |D <3
