Sooo...I don’t know what’s going on in this picture. I drew it at 1:30 in the morning. I was in a drawing slump and wasn’t in that great of a mood because of it. I had tried drawing several other things earlier and none of them I liked, so I was feeling like a failure. So I decided to draw something easy: Becky. Originally I had planned to sketch her giggling or something cute and frivolous. But it turned into this. I don’t know…but I feel like my brain randomly deciding to complete her in this gloomy manner says something. Maybe it’s because I have so much going on right now and I’m trying to cope with it all. Maybe I want something that I just can’t have. Maybe I’m missing him too much again. Maybe my mind is portraying Becky as myself, desperately running through the misty veil of blackness that surrounds her. Perhaps that cloud is artist’s block. It almost looks as if the veil is part of her.

Wow, when did I become so philosophical?

I’m not usually this dark. I try to always look on the bright side of things in life. Maybe this is my inner insecurities showing through. From all my new responsibilities. Or perhaps I’m looking way way way too much into this. That’s always an option.

Anyway, enough of my rant! I’m just glad I could draw something. But now it’s 2 in the morning and I have to read Catching Fire and go to sleep.

(I’ll bet you all are now thinking of your own insecurities. )
