Castles In The Sky

Postby Klaora » Thu Sep 29, 2011 6:13 am

When I was rather young and began seriously drawing for the first time, I created this masterpiece:

I was around twelve years old at that time.

I remember showing it to my father, as I was very proud of that drawing. I told him I wanted to grow up and be an artist. And do you know what he said to me?
"Klaora, do you know what a starving artist is?"
It's been nearly a decade since then, and I've not yet forgotten.

I've always thought that I've given up on my dream but, here I am still drawing and getting better and better every day. I may not ever get to be a professional, but I don't think I will ever stop. I'm still working, still creating, and I'm still building these same old castles in the sky.

I really really do love the colours in that background:3 And the shine<33

I'm around the age you were then and that is quite good lol compared to drawings I've seen in my school hehe<3 The Idea is awsome and keep going x3

Thank you very much, Becca~ash. :3 I had a lot of fun playing around with all sorts of differing colors for the background~ I don't know why, but that's always my favorite part of drawing. XD

XDD You think so? I always see kids doing much better than I did at their age. (And then I'm thankful that they're not my age yet, else I'd have a lot more competition. x3 I kid, I kid.)
Thanks again, and I certainly plan to do so, whether I'm a starving artist or not. XD

Beautiful :P
Laugh, and the world will laugh with you. Laugh hysterically for no apparent reason and everyone will leave you alone...The girl you just called fat? She's overdosing on diet pills.The girl you just called ugly? She spends hours putting makeup on hoping people will like her.See that man with the ugly scars? He fought for his country. The boy you just tripped, he is abused enough at home. That guy you just made fun of for crying, his mother is dying. Copy and paste this in your siggy if you're against bullying. 95% probably won't copy this, but people with a heart will.

@KaiKenNatsuki: I think I'm just going to stop drawing now. XD
Thank you. :3

@harrison1230: XD Not my first word of choice, but thank you so much.

@wolfy: I think I'm gonna quit art forever now. :P
I kid, I kid. But, wow, you are very talented. People don't believe me whenever I say "trust me, you do better than I did at your age."

@Growlll: Thank you. ^^
