Description ''The sky was her canvas, and on it she would paint and discover who she really was.'

YES GUYS.

I AM FOR SRSLY ALIVE.

This is actually homework, would you believe.
For my art class, we had to bring in an object that would fit into the palms of our hands, and so...
I close a feather! 8D
And we had to draw that object fifty times within the space of about five hours.
Challenging. o: It was supposed to test us to see if we could think 'out side of the box'
So we could manage to get fifty drawings done quickly xD;
Anyway, the fifty feather drawings are sitting in my process diary and I ain't scanning them for a while, but what this has to do with my artwork is simple. : D
After we completed the fifty, we were supposed to draw two pictures based off our object simultaneously, using five different mediums on each (like, we could use the same five on each or whatevers xD).
So this is one of them.
My the entirety of these drawings (the fifty feathers, the two drawings and various others) all compile a huuggeee assessmennt that's due in like, two days ~ |D I'm so glad I've finished!!

So basically. This is me.
YES. YOU CAN ALL FINALLY SEE MY DESIGN/PERSONA/WHATEVER.
This is my official ref, guys. xD; I'll come up with a more detailed one later, but this will certainly do for now. So yeahs.
And those are black Converse shoes on my feet, by the way ~
Complete with my gorgeous winnngsss
See, it's funny thing, really.
Ever since I was kid (this will sound clichΓ© and whatever, but still, what I'm saying is true and important to me. -pokes tongue out-), I've always had this longing to fly. I still remember dreams from when I was about five years old that had me flying in them. Of course, at that stage my mind didn't fix the wings to my back like it does now, but yeah.
So as I grew up, that fascination remained in my sub conscious and sometimes it was fully aware in my mind, you know?
I used to go around collecting any pretty bird feathers I used to find in my grandparent's backyard.
Yeah, probably dumb because birds have germs and all that, but I never got sick. -giggle-
Anywaaayy, so I liked feathers, collected them sometimes...but the obsession with flying wasn't all that deep or passionate considering my age. o.o;
But then, you see...it all really came back into my conscious state of mind when Crisis Core came along.
It made me remember and realise my old childhood dream to fly and have wings...so it made me all sentimental.
Actually, it's probably one of the main reasons I adore Genesis so much, actually.
Aaannndd why I shed so many tears over that game. -sob-
So really, it was Crisis Core that reawakened my desire to fly, to break away from everyone else and be myself, and find out who I really am on the inside. See that there? I just explained my personall quootteee. Mwahaha.
Eheh, anyway. I promise this rant will end soon. -cough-
And then, later, I was in my school library with ~septasonicxx and she showed me Maximum Ride...and wow. That book was like, amazing...it really described flight so well and made me feel so jealous of the flock and all. And, it was that book that gave me my first dream where I was flying with wings.
Ever since then, all my dreams that involve flying (I've had another three since that time) with beautiful, strong and powerful wings on my back. My mind has this awesome ability to create the sensations that come with flight...the weightlessness, the wind, the rush of power and adrenaline, the freedom, the speed, the lift and wind in my feathers, the muscles in my shoulders working steadily...it's just like it's so real.
That's the second closest I've ever come to flying in my whole life.
The closest, however, was going on a flying fox last year.
I swear, it felt so amazing. Just so incredible and wonderful and and and
I was able to stretch my entire body out and I felt like I was flying for just that brief moment...I so wish I could experience that again.
Hopefully, I will. <3;

So there you have it. Now I've spilled my hopes and dreams onto the Internet.

Hope you find this picture as inspiring as I do.

Beautifully shaded and, for once, appropriately large wings. Imaginative shades of brown. If you're the girl who's wearing them here, I like your saucy attitude, as well.

I can empathize with your flying dreams, as I've had them all my life. Yet not quite as vividly as your description suggests, so I also envy them. Don't ever be reluctant to share that part of your spirit ... for someone will respond.

Ahah, not really. xD
Yes, that is indeed me.
And YES about the wings! So many people draw them way too small...
And joined to the shoulder wrong >_<
It gets on my nerves, it does.

Oh, trust me, the dreams I get are completely awesome.
I wish you could have ones like them tooo ~ ;___;

Aww.

Thanks, fellow dreamer, for your comments above and on my profile ...

If you see another fave on this one from me, I think it's because the first one I made didn't take fully. You saw it, but I didn't. A dA glitch!

Now I can see it as well, and I've also added this work to my faves collection "Winged Realistic." Which it indeed is, my preferred type of such art, by far.

(Yoicks, those collections really help to organize things β€” I just started using them.)

0nn [2009-03-05 03:07:13 +0000 UTC]

So pretty! Like, seriously. I'm amazed. Huge wingspans have always intrigued me.
I'm totally with you on the flying thing. Only, in my dreams, I could never fly. I would always try to, but for some reason gravity is twice as heavy in my subconscious mind, and I have yet to fly in a dream. In all my eighteen years. D:

I'm embarrassed to say, but when I was really little I always swore I had wings. Just nobody could see them. Sort of like the phantom limb syndrome that people with removed limbs get. *facepalm*

But really. I hope you get the highest grade possible because this picture is really amazing and wonderful.


Bahaha! Now I can draw us in Midgar and other places. Since I totally blame you for my Crisis Core obsession. Even though that kind of led to my fangirlishness over Angeal. So I guess I should be thanking you instead?! XD

ooo:
I know. I get really annoyed when people illustrate characters with wings and make them tiny.
Because that wouldn't work.
Flight wouldn't be possible.
Unless we're talking chibi. owo;

Oh, oh, oh.
I can totally connect with you there on the gravity things.
I get that in dreams a lot too. D:
But lately I can just fly.
It's so awesome.
One day, you shall fly, Rah. I promiseee ~

Yeah, nearly all the time I imagine the wings on my back.
I can almost feel them. o___o;
Like, just tucked in around my shoulders.
Weird. BUT DON'T BE EMBARRASSED. D:

D'AWWH.
Thankies Rah~Rah!!

YUSSS.
DRAW UP IN MIDGAARR.
YOU WITH ANGEAL.
And me with Genesis.

Wow, thats brilliant ^^ i love the way you have drawn the wings, the textures are very good, much better than what i can do...feathers drive me insane most of the time.
