"Happy Valentine´s Day" by Katy Wilkerson

I like the whole story behind it and the emotion. Pictures like these speak a lot. Whoo, good job.

Katy Wilkerson replies: "Thanks)"

huh? that's a weird name. I'm curious why it's titled that. Good pic though.

Katy Wilkerson replies: "  Just a liberal amount of cruel, sarcastic irony. I drew it the Valentine's day after my best friend/boyfriend died after overdosing on about 30 cc of heroin (which must have cost him more than he really had on his own-- not only did he leave me alone, he stole from his parents) and tranquilizers, and being so wasted and insane he cut his wrists and trashed the room. I found him... which wasn't too much fun, and required about a month of trauma therapy. Valentine's day is a stupid holiday, deserves to be made fun of I think-- just me. And thanks. I hate it. "

wow... painful.. very nice job! Im curious as to what the story behind this one is.. im on elftown.. *Dark~Rose* is my sn

Katy Wilkerson replies: "OK i guess I'll message you-- story's kinda obvious tho.... I had to cut out the parts of it that werent fantasy so I could post it, but I still think it's pretty good for something that old."

I like this drawing..I am so sorry for your boyfriend :,(

I too lost someone on Valentine's Day but he wasn't very close. His spirit still hangs around sometimes and it was very hard realizing that he's gone. I'm so sorry about your loss. It must've been tragic.

Wow....there is so much feeling in this picture.I could stare at it forever.I´m so sorry for your boyfriend.Life is so unfair sometimes...

This is one of the pictures in here that Ive seen that has the most emotion and power in it. You are very talented when it comes to painting with lots of feelings...
Im sorry for the loss of him.

*finishes reading comments*...ummm...*looks distressed*...*sigh* It is... well nice is not quite the word, more like well done and a good piece of work... it has some glitches but it is still well done. A bit dark, but it is rather ovious why... arts help one express that which cannot be quite said by conversation to the rest of the world... um... well i rather like it even without the glitches...*feels piercing stares* well I like anime...
'Nyways it is a good piece of work.

I have a bit of experience in this area. A female friend of mine committed suicide when we were still in primary school and looking at your pic makes me want to cry again. I am truly sorry you had to experience that. No one should have to lose the one they love in such a way but you have to realize that it is not your fault and there was nothing you could have done differently to prevent it. Trust me, thinking of what you could have done differently will not bring him back or make you feel better. There is nothing else I can say so I will just tell you that you have a lot of talent. The emotion in this in phenomenal especially for your age and the art its self is very realistic. You have great potential and so much left to give. You are strong and sensitive and Wonderful, DO NOT EVER FORGET THAT.

Damn. That's some heavy irony there. Good work, and while it's not a particularly enjoyable picture (for good reasons, of course), the effort you've put into it is commendable. And, er, the girl looks like my character Moonglow... >_>;;
