-Fully Alive-

All my complaints shrink to nothing,

I'm ashamed of all my somethings...

She's glad for one day of comfort,

because of all that she has suffered...

They told her that she was no good,

They told her that she was ugly,

They told her that she would never be,

She started to believe,

Slowly changing color to show how she felt.

 

Not really sure how I like it. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. *update-I think that i dislike this one more and more everytime that i see this, might delete from here*

This is watercolour, ink, and corel draw

Screw what people say! They’re idiots!! All of them! Even us!! [[runs around a bit panicking due to the implications of that statement]]
But blue is a good color. Its pretty. So now she’s prettier than them all!! WHOHOO!!!!
Is her hair supposed to be wet? It looks wet. o_____o

Lovely colours! Her eyes are beautiful, I love the sparkle they have, it makes her look so real. I also like the fact that you used a different kind of colours for her eyes ^^ And the earrings give the pic nice detail!

Good job =D

Not sure why in the world they would say she was ugly when she’s very pretty. Great use with watercolor, this is an awesome piece.

I love the hair it’s great and the eyes really stand out.

:-) Lydia stephanie Barker replies: "I was a little concerned with how it came out. thank you very much!"

*checks hands to see if she is turning blue yet* awwwwwww..... turn blue, darnit! BLUE! (or green, that works too)
hmm... I like the hair... and the nose. I know that sounds strange, but it is an awesome nose. ’s really hard to make realistic noses (I can’t).

:-) Lydia stephanie Barker replies: "the nose is probably the only thing here that I like the turnout on. thanks"

i love it, keep it up for a little longer please!!!! her shining eyes are so emotive, like she’s on the brink of crying...very sad!

:-) Lydia stephanie Barker replies: "yea, i was crying when painting this. i thought that the blue worked well with my feelings. my first color choice is always green, but, blue is not far behind. 2

trying hard (very hard) to keep it up longer."

I like it very much
concerning your green elf thingy,
is this another half-selfportrait?
’cause that might just be why you dislike it more and more (I recognize that)
but that hasn’t got anything to do with how others like it!
i like it, especially with the poem.
senitive poem, it’s a good one

:-) Lydia stephanie Barker replies: "you are very kind...and i think that you are right. you have wonderful insight, do you know that? thank you so very much for the kindness."
