Description

The sun goes down...
I feel the light betray me...



I've been listening to Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory on repeat for the last few days...  The whole album is so perfect for this character...
( It was probably what I was listening to way back when he was created... when I was an angsty middle schooler. )


Happy birthday, Kenji!!

Another protagonist of mine has a birthday today (;_; He's existed for 13 years omg i'm getting so old)

One of my all-time favorite characters.... like, in the top three I love him so much I have 100+ ocs so that's saying something!  My emo prince, Kenji. ;v;


It's an intent of mine to do more art from my other stories, this year.  Especially this one.




<--(past bday pics for him)


7" x 10" - watercolors, micron pen, graphite pencil, colored pencil - color corrected in Photoshop CS5.1

Such a wonderful piece! The sunset is just wonderfully done (I love the gradients! ) and Kenji's posture is just so... solemn. A dark figure hugging his knees against the sunset - it is clear he is a troubled young man. Wonderful work!
