Here's a piece that I did back in 2005. When I originally did this one I was going through some rough and stressful times. (I'm going through some rough times now as I lost my job about two weeks ago) I wanted to draw something that reflecte the emotionall hurricane that I've been going through,so I drew this poor gal. I wanted to create an image of a female in complete despair, but I had so much shit on my mind at the time of brainstorming what to draw.

I went straight to the cover of the comic book mini-series Adrennalyn #4 where I remembered Addie looked like she had some shit on her mind and pretty much copied the pose and added the tear. Before adding my own flavor to it, I did make some subtle changes. I didn't care so much about making the drawing look as perfect as possible, I wanted to get the point across of how I was, and currently am, feeling through an artistic medium. (That's what us artists do, right?)I think it still came out looking pretty good.

Basically, she's going through the same shit that I was going through at the time of drawing, and oddly enough 2 and a half years later still am. She's lonely (I hope that came through clear with the stick figure bubble), she's broke, she has no idea in what direction she's going in life, and nobody understands her mindset of thinking and why she does the things she do. Notice her tattoo; she's an actor, just like me! (I want that same tat in the exact same spot!)

With all of the shit going on with this gal she, like myself, knows that she's gonna catch her dreams by the balls and not stop believing in herself regardless of how shitty life is now. She aint gonna quit, and neither am I, dammit!

Notice the other little gems that I dropped in there, like her Pumas (I wore Pumas back when I drew this one) and her MF DOOM top. (MF DOOM is one of my favorite rappers) The title of this piece comes from Marvin Gaye's song "Inner City Blues-Make Me Wanna Holler" See? I draw more than just slightly muscular cyborg chicks!
