Description [EDIT: my monitor had severe problems so the colours went a bit weird. D: Here's the fix since I've got a new monitor now DD:]
[FULLVIEW PLEASE D:]

"but struggling will pull you deeper, and hoping makes me stronger...-"

Project for my art portfolio. D:

Basically I'm personifying all the negative... things I'm quite acquainted with. Despair is that thing that stops me from working hard and puts me down when I hit setbacks. D: I'm quite rubbish at handling setbacks. There's a recovery period needed, which is always a waste of time. OTL I also hold on to the idea that "if I despair over something first, it won't hurt if I fail." D: This is a coward's way of doing things.

Remaining pieces are Envy, Grudge and Apathy.

---

P.S:
This was an interesting piece of artwork, not because of what I drew, but because of what HAPPENED when I was drawing it.

Long story cut short - Despair decided to let me have a true taste of "despair", and so she played a joke on me. Details are here so go have a read if you're interested... orz

ใ™ใ”ใ„, I love .... all of this oAo

the composition is wonderfully DELICIOUS WITH DETAILS OAO I love the moon, it has just the right blurry yet clear feel, and harhar that HEART. It's CREEPY.

You look at Despair's face first then you slowly start to notice all the little details and shading and then you sit back and marvel at the whole thing. It's those types of pictures you stare at for a loing time =w= At least I stare for a long time. *stare*

lolPS: I just noticed the glowing crystals! New details every second! XD
