I Choose Lifeby `Gwendolyn12

Manga & Anime / Traditional Media / Mixed Media

"When love was bound together,
Believed it by the letter,
It closed my eyes for ever,
Cos everything has changed and now…

I ain't gonna look the other way,
After all the clouds go by,
It's just another empty sky,
I ain't gonna wait to see the rain,
Nothing's gonna make it right,
Look at me cos i choose life..."
Keisha White - I Choose Life

Yay, it is finally finished!

(Actually it was already but I could only post now due to my forced hiatus

) I really like how it turned out, though it was really hard and time-consuming to work with every detail on it and make it look like I wanted to

For this painting, I wanted to follow your instructions and do something colorful without being rainbow:> I tried my hand at darker colors and used some watercolors and such to see the effect

...And I don't know what else to say about it, but I'm pretty satisfied with it.

I hope you'll like, too.

Daily Deviation

Given 2011-08-17

Suggested by quite a few people, I Choose Life by `Gwendolyn12 is an absolutely superb coloured rendition of *sureya's line art, "sweetness in the air...". The colouring techniques used are fantastic and give great results; you can easily tell plenty of time was spent here. Beautiful work on both parts; be sure to visit the galleries of both the lineartist and the colourist. ( Featured by ^VAngelLJ )
