Description memories + music + misery = this

i started painting to relax and distract myself,
and the more i painted, the more it became how i felt
and the more it became how i felt, the more it became me..

Music attaches itself to memories and moments.
the right song at the right time can make you fly so high
the wrong song at the wrong time can ruin you completely.

These songs make the integral soundtrack of our lives

Beautifully executed. The emotion comes through with the force of a sledgehammer. the body language, the lighting, and the baleful glow of the cigarette all contribute to making this a masterful piece. Love the detail of the eyes in the simplicity of the face.

yeah, sometimes you see all the other people in class drawing and they're all either too modest or very egotistical so you just see this one good/average looking kid who's drawing looks like them but maybe a bit too much and then you see this ugly, big-headed kid drawing himself with some gangster hoodie or something and it looks stupid either way...

i think yours looks like you. i saw your interview on youtube and you didn't seem big-headed or too modest, you seemed proud of your work and achievements and i think that's how people should be

life is better when set to a soundtrack you're so right, music is connected to so many of my memories, i associate certain bands with certain people i know, which can be a bad thing occasionally. true words <3
this piece is fantastic, atmospheric and emotional, you can really see the frustration in the face. it's just very beautiful but all together tragic. what you've done with the lighting makes this picture

also hope you are feeling much better.
