Description Fan art of Japanese singer, dancer and actor Matsushita Yuya. Drawn as a birthday gift for him, but also as a prayer for all the other people in his country.

Sometimes I wonder whether my role as an artist really matters in this world, as compared to having a practical job like being a doctor. But there are also times when I manage to believe that one day I will be able to heal what medicine can't mend, through my paintings. There is still a long long way to go, and I don't know whether I will ever reach my goal, but I will keep pushing on.

Hope you like!

It's absolutely wonderful. Art is making this world better, isn't it? And I believe that if your work makes anyone smile or think "Oh, what a piece of beauty", then it really does matter. (And yes, I have to smile looking at this, thinking: "Gorgeous work...")

This gives such a warm feeling
I love the soft colours and how the blend together so well
It's great how you manage to give such detail in the shirt without making it look too hectic
Overall, this is an amazing piece with a brilliant colour scheme and overall warm theme
you should be very proud of this
it's very inspirational

JohnnyPenn [2011-04-16 19:04:07 +0000 UTC]

It's wonderful. I think you've done a marvelous job on it.
And the word always needs artists. How else would one have gotten the Sistine Chapel, or books like Dorian Grey, Treasure Island and such other artistic works of whatever.

Sure you could go and be a doctor because that's what family expect f you...however, I say...follow your heart/compass. Not everyone wants the same thing in life.

NorahKhor In reply to JohnnyPenn [2011-04-19 12:57:34 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Sometimes I wonder if I'm a little selfish in doing what I enjoy, but hopefully my work won't just be something pretty to look at, but that it will be able to influence people indirectly too.

JohnnyPenn In reply to NorahKhor [2011-04-19 16:50:37 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome, and it's okay.
I hope the same thing for whatever I write. Different people will always take something different away. But, no one can see something and not form an opinion on it. That's just how people work. Someone will take something away from your art. Maybe they'll be inspired to do something themselves. I know that's happened to me.

yes, your art matters. just in a different way
