Penelope

Postby apache~ » Sun Nov 28, 2010 11:58 am

Oh Penelope
Are you filled with air
Swallowed oxygen
That makes you float up?
Is it dropsy?
Will your lungs swell?
It’s depressing me
To see you struggle

Penelope, by Pinback

------------------


Recently I had a dream where I was drowning... In the beginning I was panicing, trying to fight my way to the surface. But as I grew weaker, I started to give up and just float. My chest was burning, along with my throat, and salt water was stinging my eyes, nose and throat. Just before I 'lost consciousness' (or woke up) a small clownfish floated in front of me, inches from my face, and then nuzzled itself against me... like a hug, almost. I imagined him saying, "Don't struggle. I'll be with you until the end. Just... let go." And I did.

Despite the pain, it was the best dream I've ever had.

I may redo this... don't really like the big blob that is supposed to be Uoneko XD Maybe I'll add in that mystery clownfish, too.

Hey, I like that blob. >D
*pokes Uo in ribcage*
It's very well shaded! You just keep gettin better and better!

Wow... spooky dream...
I had something like that happen in real life.
Just imagine a few sharks in the background.
They weren't killer sharks, though. And about the size of my dog.
But BOY did they have some TEETH. Scared the crap out of me.
A wave just carried me off and there I was.
Lucky someone saw me. I stink at swimming.

Nice art, Uo. :3 *hugs*

Thank you everyone <3

All the nice comments really make my day when I read them. I would reply to each one but I am pressed for time, so instead I'll just let you know I read them all and fully appreciate each one! I love hearing feedback from anyone; fan of my art or not! Don't be shy and feel free to comment! It may be pathetic but sometimes your feedback is the only thing that keeps me coming to the CS oekaki... just to hear all t he lovely things you say ♥

I love the simplicity of the picture, plus this goes really well with the description of your dream I love how it fits together. The picture really illustrates your dream well ^^ You are a great artist and it is a pleasure seeing your art in the CS oekaki =3
