Description
Hope is
not a grain in the sky..
not a whisper in the air..
nor a petal dying in grief..

It's.. a tiny ray
peeking through the grim dark clouds..
a lonely bird's melody
in the hallow wind..
a dandelion
carried blindly by fate..

It's a smile, that after every dark storm and every bitter memory, still lives.. like a newborn flower.


I know things have went this far... but that doesn't give me the sign to stop, ever.





Pencils, round tip pens, technical pens, Indian ink. Some edits and adjustments in PS CS2.

I love this piece, the girl is beautiful, all the detail... it has a art-nouveau-esque feel to it, and the little poem is very cool too.

Yeah I tried make the outline around the girl a bit bolder than the details, I think I managed that maybe

I really like this, I love how all the lines flow along with all the little patterns you've included.
It fits the theme, with all the hands reaching out in attempt to grasp what it is the girl is holding (rays of hope? I'll have to read the description closer x)).
Infact, the hands are fascinating me far too much o.0 Well observed!

Actually when I was drawing this I didn't know what I was doing at all :s it all came to be.. (lol that's a funny saying ) They sprang all while I was scribbling every line with every little feeling I had. I was going through hard times in those days and the lines just made it the way out of what I felt during it :>

Thank you for your comment

I just had this image of you being asleep (i don't know what you look like, so i'll place a duck there instead) and your brain being bored, so it drags your body out of bed, and sliding across the floor head first.

T'would be amusing

Wise-Cat-Of-Wisdom In reply to Elaynies [2007-07-16 22:28:12 +0000 UTC]

I go outside one night and see you sleep-sliding along the road in your best pjamas. I wouldn't know whether to just stare blankly or go and see what the hell's going on

What ever sleeping disorder it is, it's one with a sense of humour

Inspiration to run around the corners of the street with my best pijamas !!! neat!

Ehh.. I've been having this for too long, and I'm still having it, I can't wake up when people should wake up!! It's annoying, funny but STILL.. I'm trying to cut that nasty habit

Wise-Cat-Of-Wisdom In reply to Elaynies [2007-07-16 22:49:32 +0000 UTC]

When should people wake up?

There's nothing wrong with it, you want to be in your dreams, living your own little fantasies.

You could start sleep walking instead then....heading into town in your best pjamas, walking over cars, through ponds, leaping over roofs, climbing statues, purchasing clogs and wearing them on your ears.

Ye heard! (unless you were wearing the clogs, then maybe not)!

Depends if you mind someone calling you their treasure. You could find it sweet or just extremely creepy

We could be neutral about this, and kidnap a bunny to send into the contest to make us both rich!
