Description Thanks can go a long way, not just on a single holiday. I really am thankful for many things, my wonderful family, the few friends I can trust, the life I have and the amazing fact I'm still alive today.

Before 2009, those were the only targets of my thanks (well, those on DA too), but since this year began, I've grown a precious fondness for a certain someone of whom, despite being far away, I'm thankful for every single day. My Amber, whether rain or shine, you'll always be in my heart, for you mean more to me than all that I am.

As well, despite the funk of not being able to draw thanks giving day to participate in the collab we wanted to do, after seeing your Playing Pilgrim picture and your comment, I just felt like drawing, and this is what came to be in the very first sketch. Thank you for the continued inspiration. <3

Take a close observation of life itself. There are countless ways to die, to lose your life, and very few to survive. Not everyone makes it to be twenty years old, heck, not everyone makes it to be even ten years old, and there are still countless children out there that barely make it to one year old.

And then, look at life today. We count on everyone for survival. The food we get in the store, we put faith that it'll keep us healthy, not poison us. When we use vehicles to drive everywhere, we trust none explode, or we crash, or a natural disaster wipes us off the face of the earth.

To me, to have lived this long is a miracle. Maybe not everyone sees that, but I see it. Life is a gift, time is a gift. Everyone has a certain amount of time, what we choose to do with it is one thing, but it's limited, and to discover how much you have so far... well, lucky I guess.

And thanks...

Wow... ther's so much love in this picture you can't help but be thankful.

THe expressions here are heaven sent. I can see the love radiating from Logi's eyes and Ambi's joy of being in his arms. Just tht has made it priceless.

As for the picture itself, it's really good. I love how you've done Logi and Ambi's shadow from the fire's light.

Happy Thanks Giving!

Glad you like it my friend. It did come out quite well, though need to draw more so can be even better for future pictures.

Shadow was easiest thing to do though, hah hah.

Thanks, I need to put time into a project for Christmas though. It's actually tougher than I thought it would be...

And nah, not lack of art experience, just a bit basic stuff for photoshop is all.

Thank you Din, I'm glad you like it. I put a pretty good amount of effort into it, more so than I do schoolwork most of the time. *snickers*

Indeed it has, I've been busy, more so because I don't do my schoolwork till late, and I don't do art stuff less schoolwork is done, so you can see where procrastination can really make things difficult.

Cooldude104 In reply to Lohlite [2009-11-30 01:48:24 +0000 UTC]

yeah. Doesn't it also have to do with Amber? In my short time here. I have never seen anyone more dedicated to someone they love! I applaud you.

pichu90 [2009-11-28 09:24:05 +0000 UTC]

I can see you put a lot of effort into making this fit the theme so nicely, the lighting from the fire makes it look more real this way. You seem to have more creativity in putting scenes together than ever before ^^

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Lohlite In reply to pichu90 [2009-11-29 02:56:48 +0000 UTC]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate your sensible response to my deviation. The theme does fit well, though I admit this picture comes from the inspiration of Amber's thanks giving gift (I started working on this maybe an hour after she submitted).

As for the backgrounds, I've learned something called random picture observance. Rather, I look up what I want my background to be, then pull the colors and create my own version.

pichu90 In reply to Lohlite [2009-11-29 05:02:29 +0000 UTC]

Cool, it's very similar to what I do, of course whenever I actually put effort into a background that is ^^

ACSBlade [2009-11-28 08:20:15 +0000 UTC]

There was no hiding it. Both the chief's daughter, and the captain's son, had fallen into deep passionate romance. And fellow injun and pilgrum alike looked down upon them with shaking heads of shame and dissaproval. But they are who to judge? And what man woman or child upon this earth can judge? For nobody can ever tell you who to fall in love with. And what's wrong with that? I'd like to know...

Lohlite In reply to ACSBlade [2009-11-29 02:55:05 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah? I'd like to know what you're on to type that. Smokum a little peace pipe perhaps? I think we'd all like to know.

Perhaps a bit high on the copious amounts of love in the nearby air. It also helps to be half awake at the keyboard at three am.

McWerewolffy [2009-11-28 08:08:50 +0000 UTC]

Honestly, It looks like you either just pulled her out of a fire, or are about to put her in one, and while I have heard of a burning passion. That might be going a step to far.

Unless of course she weighed the same as a duck, in which case it wouldn't matter if she was the most wonderful person in the world, she would turn me into a newt.

I would of course get better but that's not the point, and oh dear, I seem to be rambling again.

Well that's what you get when I check my messages at... 2:07 in the morning... Wait.

Well Happy belated Thanksgiving to you and yours and Amber and hers.

Dude, you are lazy to type the same exact comment. Actually, you probably just copied and pasted, you didn't even bother to retype the same thing. Shame on you.
