Never to go again.

Postby Merena » Thu Aug 06, 2015 4:38 pm

This is is a redraw of an old traditional drawing i drew in january of a cat and and a grandfather clock sitting on the floor in a old house. The original was drawn on 50 year old paper my grandpa gave me and my friend accedentily ripped it by holding back my door to keep my brother out of my room XD, and the drawing was on the door and it ripped in half. The new drawing is in sepia btw, enjoy!

The title is from an old song called Grandfathers Clock,


Nintey years without slumbering, Tick Tock Tick Tock,
His life seconds numbering, Tick Tock Tick Tock
but it stopped, short, never to go again, when the old, man, died.


I thought the song would fit this picture because of the clock.

I love the sepia colors you've chosen to use for this piece! Really gives it an antique feel.
It's a pity that the original traditional drawing you drew was ripped, though you now have a great re-draw that can't be ripped!
