Tag As FavoriteComment		'Rows of houses, all bearing down on me
I can feel their blue hands touching me.
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole

And fade out again,
And fade out...'
~Radiohead, Street Spirit(Fade Out)

One of my favourite songs in the world! I had to attempt to do a picture inspired by it. I don't think I captured the real essence of the song, but I'm still quite fond of this piece.
done with Photoshop and a Wacom Tablet.

SWEET I love this drawing.!!!!I like the spirts all around her. She looks like she lost and affraid.

:-) Emily De Búrca replies: "Thanks- I was going for the 'lost' look, I'm afraid she looks too content though. The spirit hands were fun to do!"

GREAT song! It's wonderful to see Radiohead appreciated around here. There's a pic in my gallery based on "Street Spirit" as well, though it's pretty old now. I think you did a great job capturing the essence of the song actually, the darkness and gloomy really fits the mood.

Wow! Lovely pic! I like the way you used the same colour tone for the whole picture. It suits the song quite well. Wow, I love it!
