Artist's Comments

Inspired by "One Headlight" by The Wallflowers [Listen]

"Well this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think her death it must be killin' me"

I wanted to do a portrait piece of a kid in a suit, but I couldn't find any stock with that, so I just transformed an adult into one :shrug:

I realize this is probably really strange...lol

Edit: Thanks to many suggestions, this image has been updated :thanks: It's more of a green hue now, cane is changed, right hand is fixed, more shadows added, the one shoe looks less fisher-price-like, and the tie matches the red in the roses

Quien habla mucho tiene algo que esconder,

Why yes, my avatar does take advantage of reverse pyschology. :3

Well, what can I say.............................................
:iconbitchinblack:
The only thing that I think might need some work is the shadow between the legs. If the light is coming in from the back, then the right leg will cast some shadow on the seat. =)

Other than that, I don't see anything else that needs work. I love the uniqueness of this piece. <3

Very nice work.:D

Winter comes and the winds blew colder
While some grew wiser, you just grew older
And you never listened anyway,
And that's the hell of it.


Welcome to my :gallery: [link]

Great concept.
The colors and the contrast between the flowers and everything else makes the image even more powerful.
Great work!
