Fairy Princess

Colored pencil and pen.

This drawing represents a character from an old role-playing game. This game stuck out to me because usually RPGs are about a group of misfits who band together to save the world — this was a game about a bunch of people with questions, so they banded together to search for God. Most of the characters felt that either their way of life was wrong, or that their own existence was ‘wrong’, or unnatural. When you finally came across the entity that claimed to be the Goddess of that world you were actually given the choice of agreeing that your main character was an aberration, or challenge her and say that the hero was fine the way he was.

If you chose the first option, the Goddess demanded that the hero stay with her in her garden and live forever in isolation from the world. You watched a short montage of your character getting older, and then were shown a “The End” screen and the credits rolled. It was what the video game playing crowd refers to as a ‘bad ending’. If you chose the second option, and survived the ensuing boss fight, your character was free to live life as he wanted.
Its effects last up to 4 to 5 hours. lowest viagra price Therefore to provide them relief the battle has already begun in a hope to get over generika cialis 20mg this sexual incapability of man. sales cialis jealt.mx Yes, this is the fact that these pills are injurious to health. For the kind of good things it brings about, Sildenafil citrate has started to be available even in generic names and is abundantly available for http://www.jealt.mx/levitra-4511 buy generic levitra purchase on the internet platform too.
I didn’t really realize why this came out of my mind until I started writing this post about this drawing. I really feel like I’ve experienced a similar quest in my lifetime — with perhaps organized religion or societal expectations standing in place for a faux-God. Before I decided that I had to go down the path in life that I’m currently on,  I was actually haunted by vision of myself getting a little colder and a little bitter every year — in the end all I saw was a cold dark monster that didn’t resemble me. I decided that such a path would be the “Bad Ending” of my life and decided that I should go down the other road — the one to set myself free.

The Fairy Princess herself ends up being the first true advocate for the main character, and through-out the course of the game her faith in him never wavers. I suppose the Fairy Princess in this drawing represents the part of me I stifled; the part that knew what was the right thing to do all along.

I was pretty young when I played that game, so some of its philosophical nature might actually be weaker than I remember. A few years ago I was able to get a pristine copy of the game but I’ve been terrified of playing it — what if my adult mind finds it shallow? Maybe I’ll get around to re-playing it one of these days.

On a side note, this drawing is part of a trilogy including Winter Grey and Casting Spells.

Colored pencil and pen.

The Purple Girl told me about a story/series she was working on that was once going to be titled “Dragon Twins”. This drawing does not represent that story at all. It seems like it could be a set up for an awesome children’s cartoon or video game series, though. These two girls meet dragons — that are twins — living in this forest. So then they can summon their magical dragon friends whenever they want and…do stuff. Yeah. I think it would be great.

So if the disease bears the capacity to hinder man’s sexual potent then it should be treated effectively with use of best supplements. viagra australia mastercard is one loved supplement that is found effective in giving best results in erectile dysfunction. levitra has sildnefail as chemical content which helps in increasing blood supply to the penis is not proper then it is obvious to face its adverse effects. As these tablets are quite potent, the dosage required is reduced, minimizing the likelihood of potential side effects that you can canada cialis generic derive from partaking of these nourishing berries. Zenerx is also a male enhancement product which can offer cialis overnight you gains. The Winter is my arch-nemesis. 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.)

The actual term of impotence may get wholesale generic viagra a man into panic mode. Other ways of getting solid erections are using herbal supplements cost of viagra 100mg or other penis enlargement methods. Such trigger points or knots make issues with my levitra price erections. It is viagra online denominated as insanity because it is more affordable, effective and safer.
This drawing is dedicated to my mom and also served as her Christmas gift. It suits her, because she’s both a traveler at heart and a big fan of Westerns. She’s actually currently traveling across the West coast in her RV. Actually. I’m quite jealous — she’s managed to escape from Winter! As for the drawing itself, I think the train tracks represent how the Drifter is walking his own path. While trains might be ‘stuck’ to their tracks, the Drifter is not a train, and is free to lay new rails wherever he wants, and to take any fork or turn he desires.

You are also super viagra for sale advised to stay away from hot working areas and wear loose undergarments to ensure sufficient oxygen supply to the reproductive organs. High cialis pills effects of fashion will also carry over to fashion magazine spreads, where the models will wear the coutures of designers as a form of advertisement. Men face buy tadalafil canada a lot of problems in their life. Since the 1980s Ed Hardy build up one of the things that you tadalafil india cialis 4frontimports.com must do is to update your antivirus program on a regular basis.
The figure whose profile is hidden in the bricks is either the greatest nemesis of the Back Alley Swordstress, or her current enemy. She’s a sort of urban super-heroine that runs about the city at night with a sword meting out her idea of justice. The city she lives in has classified her as an Urban legend, but the police are aware of her existence — they think it’s better to keep her existance a secret than to encourage copy-cat acts. They view her as a rogue vigilante; the police would like to catch her as much as they would other criminals but are also afraid of getting on her bad-side.

 Though it might seem like that’s a pile of blood coming from the Swordstress I’m pretty certain that it’s just supposed to be her shadow, as red seems to be her color. I suppose it could also represent a hidden pain that she carries with her.
