wheeee! just changed my blogskin. i like some orange so there it goes! there are some things i have trouble changin gin the template that the skin looks abit weird but i'll try to see to it somehow.

basically i'm slacking alot these days and i'm trying to cmplete my cell member's drawing, i'll try to complete most of it today if it is possible! during the O lvls exam, i bought Rihanna's album - with quite afew new songs added. i love songs such as take a bow, sell me candy, disturbia, question existing and i especially find rehab a very meaningful and emotional song. i love the songs!

hmm now moving on. i typed on my previous post that i'll be posting my drawing and its details here, so here it is =)

Title: Memories So Real

Poem I wrote:

All these pain, it hurts my soul
i can't forget,
i can't let go...

All the love, masked all the hycrocrisy
its hard to comprehend,
but i finally understand...

All your deceit,
All your cynicism, intoxicated my heart
added so much to the nightmare,
and it is so much more than i can bear...

I will never let you break me
I will never let you feed me with hurt and lies
I will never allow myself to suffer,
living in the burning dreamscape of smog and horror

Now let me come into sanity,
let me wake up from my broken dreams,
i desprately need a breath of fresh air.
God, please take me away from the haunting memories,
Memories So Real.

Symbolism:
1stly the frame element you see ( at 1st glance= mirror ), but this idea is very much inspired by the idea of marriage/family photo album covers. thus marriage/family albums reminds people of happy times and memories.

for the 2nd part of the concept, i have added other symbolisms like cracks, hand with roots and soil and flowers lined with the black colour ( negativity ), all which veer towards the negative concept and feel that interwines with the idea of the concept i wanted to convey as a whole. many other symbolisms can be understood by the poem which i wrote to go along with this drawing. one of the main objectives still for this drawing is approaching this drawing at a surrealistic approach using a head as if popping out of the frame-like structure. the frame acts as a portal into another world ( dreamscape as mentioned in the poem )

Technical: i drew her eyes bigger as proportional naturalism isn't what i'm totally aiming for. i wanted her eyes to be bigger to convey certain emotion, sadness, shock, probably as if just woken up from nightmare etc. my aim for this drawing wasn't to be too hyperrealistic thus i feel i have not tarnished the purpose of the drawing. this drawing is drawn by imagination except the hands which i used slight reference from looking at my own hands.

_______________________

the purpose of the drawing is to be able to relate to the problems that many people face, emotional or physical. the earth is filled with so much terror and hycropcrasy at times that makes us feel intimidated. i believe all the more standing strong will increase our understanding towards life and all its negativity thus builds our character from lessons learnt.
