Theme 10 of 100 in Variation 1: "Breathe Again" - pencil, color pencils
Also an entry for the "Fall/Autumn" contest at Feathers and Wishes~
The journey is nearly over and the four remaining companions have nothing to do but wait in eager anticipation for the ultimate completion of their hopes and wishes and dreams. There is plenty of time now for the little luxuries like taking a nap in the middle of the day, roaming around just to see the sights, and stopping to play in a pile of fallen leaves. They've succeeded against all odds, and can relax, revel in each other's quiet - often silent - congratulations and approval, and breathe again. <3
Suffering from a heinous cold-flu-THING right now. I had this bad moment last night where I was achy and restless and couldn't seem to settle down to do anything, even rest. Somehow I couldn't even stomach the thought of any of my usual calming activities - reading, writing, watching a movie - except for sketching. I sat down and lost myself in a quick sketch and scribble of Fye...somehow the repetitive scritching of color pencils over paper was soothing, and after I finished this I was able to go to sleep. Weird.
And like everything you do, this is magical and lovely and gives me a lot of feelings. I love the colour contrast, I love the shade of blue he's wearing, and I love the joy on his face.
I love it.
