Description
This goes out to those whose ever felt void of reason. Empty and lost with no open arms and open hearts to fall into. Those who gave up on hope, when faith is all they had to hold onto. Hearts break everyday and they say time heals everything... but there are some things, no matter how hard we try, it's nearly impossible to forget.Even angels get broken halos and wet wings too heavy to fly. Good people die for wrong reasons. We question why and how it could ever happen to us. Where do you go when emotion is departed from your soul? How do you seek solace amidst a cruel world that doesn't seem to care?
Acrylic, pen, and marker on my first gouache background. I love the the effect, the texture is amazing. You can be sure I'll be bustin' more paintings with it. Cheers!

I really love this piece of yours, for some reason it makes me think of kankinsky, but then again kankinsky never made me cry, i guess it might be because i know what its like to feel that way or maybe because i wish i could do to a canvas what you do.

the halo is a really nice touch. i was gonna write a critique, but i was never good at giving those..
7 days without a hug makes one weak.

You should've anyway. I crave criticism no matter how little or big the impact is. I am always interested in what peoples thoughts are coz I may see it in a different light I would have thought of. Stop selling yerself short coz I think yer swell.
And I really like that last line. Thank you!
