Artist's Comments

This is one of many pictures I managed to salvage from the wreckage of my computer. 8D;; This is based off a song I heard (lyrics below, the ones bolded are the ones I have along the side of the picture) and this is a rough version I hope to fix up in Photoshop...once we have it running. 8D;;

I'm really proud of this, though, just on it's own. It's one of the best color penciled pieces I've ever done, and after it I did a few others...I may post those, too, who knows. But this is what started it all, it's a really pretty song that struck a chord in me. I strongly suggest you listen to it: [link]
Please, it's wonderful.

May be scrapped soon, if I ever get to fixing it up in photoshop.

Comment/critic/fav please? :3

"Samson" by Regina Spektor

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we first met

Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
And history books forgot about us and the bible didn't mention us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads
But they're just old light, they're just old light
Your hair was long when we first met

Samson came to my bed
Told me that my hair was red
Told me I was beautiful and came into my bed
Oh I cut his hair myself one night
A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light

And he told me that I'd done alright
And kissed me 'til the mornin' light, the mornin' light
And he kissed me 'til the mornin' light

Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
Ate a slice of wonderbread and went right back to bed
Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down
Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one
And history books forgot about us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first

I love it, Mary! You're totally right, this is one of your best pieces!!!!! I love the way you outlined things like the hair, it makes it look great! And your anatomy is getting really good, the legs look great!

Great song choice, great picture!

Awww, thanks, Christine. :'D That made me happy. ^3^

...to be honest, I have no idea how those legs did that. XD
