my entry for 's contest.
I'm still (GAH! so slow!) working on the trade with scenceable and I was kind of at a dead end with art... and I had a piece of cardboard that I had spray painted lying on the floor, so I thought "Lets do something with this cardboard!". and this is what happened XD I wanted to enter the contest, but I couldnt think of anything to go with the words that we had to use... and then this just came to me out of no where! I wanted to work on the idea that Sonnet was reaching out to Lyric, even though shes dead. the red ribbon is a symbol of fate, and you can see it breaking in the middle, meaning that Sonnet and Lyric are close to no longer being connected. you may also notice that Sonnet is blurred... truth be told, it started out as an accident XD then I thought, "wow, if I make his whole outline smudged towards Lyric, it'll look like his soul is reaching out for her" - ' Persistent Determination '. clever, no? genious.
so the main point of this essay is, even though Lyric is dead, Sonnet is still trying to find her and wont give up. e.g. perseverance
P.S. sorry for the crappy quality, I had to use my camera to be able to load it to the computer... the cardboard wouldnt fit in my scanner
P.P.S. if you were wondering what I used to colour this, I used textas... first time I've used them... and it was fun!
P.P.P.S. Now that I look at it, I wish I had of had Sonnet pulling the ribbon in his mouth with the other end wrapped around Lyrics leg, and still fraying in the middle... Oh well ^_^
oh wow, this is lovely! The story behind it is really well done, and I love the simple yet relative design. I think it's great you tried out some new materials!
and no rush with the trade, I'm way busy at the moment as well, take your time!
That's really sweet and cool! I love the effects! Turn mistakes into new pieces of art!

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
