Letter from GodHey There, how, how’s it going? Long time no see. I know I haven’t been around much lately But…it didn’t seem like you wanted me to be The last time I sent down a message you nailed it to the cross So I figured I’d just leave you to it, let you be your own boss But I’ve been keeping an eye on you, I have, and it’s amazing how you’ve grown. With your technological advances and the problems you’ve overthrown, And all the beautiful art you’ve created with such grace and such finesse, But I admit there are a few things I’m afraid have impressed me less. So I’m writing to apologize for all the horrors committed in my name, Although that was never what I intended, I feel I should take my share of the blame. All the good I tried to do was corrupted when all the religion got into full swing, What I thought were quite clear messages were taken to unusual extremes. My teachings taken out of context to meet the agendas of others, Interpretations taken to many different ways and hidden meanings "discovered" Religion became a tool, for the weak to control the strong With all these new morals and ethics, survival of the fittest was gone No longer could the biggest man simply take whatever he needed ‘cause damnation was the price if certain rules were not heeded Some of the deeds committed in my name just made me wonder were I went wrong. Back at the start when I created this, the foundation seemed so strong. See, all the elements were already here, long before I began, I just kind of put it all together I didn’t really think out a long-term plan. I made the sun an appropriate distance and laid the stars across the sky So you could navigate the globe or simply watch the sun rise I covered the earth with plants and fruits, Some for sustenance and some for beauty I made the sun shine and the clouds rain so their maintenance wasn’t your duty I tried to give each creature its own attributes without making them enveloped I gave you all you all your own space to grow and in your own way space to develop I didn’t know such development would cause rifts and jealousy Cause you to war against each other and leave marks on this planet indelibly You see, I wasn’t really the creater, I was just the curator of nature I want to get something straight with homosexuals right now: I don’t hate ya I was a simple being that happened to be the first to wield such powers I just laid the ground, it was You that built the towers It was You that invented bombs, and the fear that comes with them And it was You that invented money, and the corrupt economic systems You invented terms like "just-war" and terms like "friendly fire" And it was You that didn’t know when to stop digging deeper, when to stop building higher It was You that exhausted the resources I carefully laid out on this earth, And it was You that even saw these problems coming but accredited them little worth It was You that used my teachings for your own personal gain And it was You that committed such tragedies, even though they were in my name So I apologize for any mistakes I made, and when my words misconstrued But this apology’s to mother nature, cause I created you

Oh hey, awesome. The water is so still and tranquil, it's almost like a glass mirror if not for the soft ripples.
Pantera (Jan 5, 2009)
I wish I lived in a place like this, looks so peaceful, great job on the colours and everything else :)

Aozora: I think the thing that's missing is more work. That seems to be a problem of mine all the time. I always get lazy and never end up putting as much work into it as I would like.But thanks for the comment. It's much appreciated. And thanks everyone else, too.
Flubbles (Jan 5, 2009)
Its not necessarily a bad thing, thats what makes it your work.I wish i could go less in to detail and be more painterly at times. |

Hi "davincipoppalaq".....Thank you very much for your comment and advice.....I am just a beginner here, and I appreciate any advice that you all can give me....on how to improve my draws. I"m experimenting with the "tools", and I guess I tend to overuse the "blur" tool. I also like the "sharpen" tool. I agree with you....I think the picture would be better with less blurry places, and more detail. Again, I thank you for your comment and advice....I appreciate it very much.
Nikore (Jul 22, 2008)
Wow, this looks really nice! I wish I had some advice to give you too, but you're a lot better than me!
firecracker (Jul 23, 2008)
Thank you Nikore, for the nice comment....but I sure could use all the advice I can get..."LOL"!! "Mama and baby"...

It's moving O.O what a stunning art you've created! Such a lovely horse!
Juni_gatsu (Aug 4, 2008)
Very nice! I like all the soft colors, I think they add a lot of motion to this picture. Also the delicateness of the horse's head is beautiful. My only critique would be that anatomically the horse is a little off, I think his/her chest should be deeper and, from that angle, not quite so long in the back. Still a very nice drawing though, keep it up.
Aakyra (Aug 5, 2008)
Thanks so much Dorsy and Juni... your comments are really appreciated. I really struggled with this as the photo reference was quite distorted. I tried several times to get that position correct in order to better portray the anatomy, but in the end, I was not successful. I also like the head and the legs, hooves were a good study excercise for me. I sometimes wonder if a tablet would make a difference for me. I always have used a mouse. When I work large, it doesn't seem to be an issue, but when I am working in a lot of details and curving lines, it seems to really take soooo much time. Thanks to both of you! |
