During the Winter time the colors fade away — both physically, and to those affected by Seasonal Affect Disorder, psychologically. During the Winter I just can’t see bright colors. Then, when spring comes, there’s always a moment when I come across a color so bright that it seems super-naturally bright. One year when I was in college there was this girl in my class that was wearing a neon-yellow T-shirt. I kept staring at it; I was fascinated. It was as if I had never seen the color yellow before and I was experiencing it for the first time. Intellectually I knew that I had seen the color yellow before, but this — this was so yellow. The girl didn’t notice I was staring, thank God.

If you’ve spent more than few moments looking at my art you’ve probably realized that color is something important to me. It enhances my enjoyment of life, and it’s often needed to express myself in visual art. So to be deprived of color is a horrendous thing to me. I remember having to work with charcoal in that art class I took in class — I really couldn’t emotionally connect with what I was trying to draw, at all. It was all lifeless. Even when the lights and shadows were ‘dynamic’, the picture depicted was often just a lifeless world to me.

I also noticed that the second to last entries in both the Heroine and the Wizard used a lot of black, white, and grey. The Wizard was being confronted with a dark and dreadful battle against the Warlock, and so the land around him lost color; The Heroine was left with somber thoughts about how she’ll be remembered — her world was bleak and the brightly colored mis-told tales mocked her. When things get dark or intense in the world of my art, the color tends to get muted or fade away. Sort of like the real-world during the winter time, when I battle with The Winter.

One final note: This drawing was done on a slightly larger and higher quality piece of paper. It’s part of a trilogy, along with Casting Spells and Fairy Princess. (I’ll add a link to them once they’re uploaded.)
