Step by Step

"You Do Matter"-Lilly S. Cline

Azures-Legacy Β asked me if I could gift her a drawing in memory of her friend Lilly, who was a
beautiful and talented young girl, who sadly, passed away by committing suicide. Lilly had a
rough childhood and was a victim of bullying, part of the reason why she developed a mental
illness.

Azures-Legacy wants to keep Lilly's memory alive by drawing and collecting artwork of Lilly's
characters. (It would be awesome if you gift her some art too.)

As Lilly, Azures-Legacy has been through some rough time too. So, I will dedicate this
drawing to both of them.

The guardian angel in the picture is Jason, Lilly's most precious character.

--
If you feel down, I just want to tell you this, not as the character of Captain Ceja, but as
the person behind him:

I feel ya. I really do.

I want you to know that there is light at the end of the tunnel, even if it's hard to believe.

It is totally understandable that you don't believe it anymore, because when you are held back
by your inner demons, it drains you and makes it impossible to see and reach said light.
That powerlessness and hopelessness blindfold you, chain you down and violently hold you from
seeking help and see past that tall brickwall of pain.

That feeling of impending doom, vicious anger, intense embarrassment and endless sorrow,
unables you from moving, unables you from enjoying, from feeling, from breathing, from
living. It is impossible to seek help feeling like this.

You reached a point where your friends don't matter, your family don't matter, nothing else
matters,

You. Yourself, don't matter. And the world would be better off without you.

No, my darling. YOU DO MATTER.

Suicide is a permanent solution for a temporary problem.

It will only cause harm. If you go, a great number of people will be devastated. Said people
will carry a wound that will never heal.

You do matter.

You are worthy. You are a beautiful and unique creation from the infinity of the cosmos. You
are beautiful stardust embellishing and illuminating this world. You are a shimmering star that
we don't want it to cease shinning in our nightsky. The world will become dark if you go.

From all possible combinations, here you are. Every single human being is entirely different.
The possibilities of what a human being can become, are endless. You are a speck of light within
this vast universe full of infinite potential and unique gifts for this world.

You are giving life one chance but there's a lot of chances within it.

Always fight, hold on and don't give up. You are not alone.

You do matter.
--

All I'm asking is that if you, a friend, a family member or somebody that you know is
suffering from depression or any behavioral illness, please talk to them, support them, tell
somebody about it and help them seek help immediately. This feeling is so strong that it
literally unables the sufferer from seeking help by themselves. They need all the support
from those around them. We may be that one chance for that person to be saved.

There is an antidote for this poisonous curse. Suicide is preventable.

Thank you all for reading.

(sorry for the long paragraph, but I really had to write this down)

Hello! I'm from ProjectComment . First of all, I really like this piece and the message behind it! Knowing the backstory to this illustration is very sad and the description you wrote is so touching.

The illustration itself is very pretty! I really like the colors, composition and detail in this picture. The face is done very well, with a lot of love for detail and a great expression.
The color scheme used in this image gives it a dreamy, magical look I really like! The sparkles you added are adding an highlight to your illustration. However I feel like some of the shadows are a little bit grayish/desaturated. I don't know if this was meant to be this way, but in my opinion the colors seem a little muted.
The other thing you could still improve are the posing and the anatomy: It's already looking very good in some areas like the face and the neck area, however you could improve the anatomy of the chest area (I can't really distinguish between chest and his left armΒ ).
The pose itself looks already dynamic, the left arm and the lower part of his body however look a little bit stiff. Have you ever heard of "contrapost" or "contrapposto"? This ancient technique is very helpful creating dynamic poses. Β 
Another thing I noticed in your illustration is that some parts like the face and the wings, are rendered more detailed than other parts. On the one hand this draws attention especially to the face, on the other hand rendering each part of the image in about the same quality, gives it an overall more finished look.Β 
Β 
All in all, this is already a very good illustration with an important message behind it!

Oh my, thank you so much for taking the time to write this very detailed and helpful comment! Hahaha the colors and shadows are intentionally muted, personal preference xD but I will definitely work on all of these flaws next time I try to draw a dynamic picture as this one. I will keep in mind to watch out and be careful about these details. Again, thank you so much for this comment, I really appreciate it!

This image is really beautiful. I really like the colours used in the piece. The lighting and the magic effects are captivating and I also like how the character is reaching out to the viewer, making you feel involved in the piece. And reading the backstory and description behind this gives this piece a real extra layer of depth and emotion that is incredibly powerful, tragic, yet the message of "there is hope" really shines through most of all. Excellent work, keep it up!
