Morning Solstice

I’ve been doing a lot of these posts lately where I just put up a drawing with the lyrics to the song I was listening to at the time… I figured I’d bother to explain this one.

I finally saw “The Lost Boys” a few days ago and like any good 80’s movie (see also: Top Gun) its soundtrack was punctuated by one song being played and replayed over and over again in different places. The song in question here is “Cry Little Sister” and it’s quite frankly a really great song. So, drawing to it. ♥

This is Cicero. He’s kind of stupid, but he’s more photogenic than Mervon.

he’s a red-eared slider, and really noisy sometimes. :[ presently he’s trying to eat some rocks (and failing).

years have passed her
and many asked her
like a quiet night or a church bell’s ring

if you take her you will never break her
don’t give her dreams
she will only slip away

My boyfriend has some pet turtles (Mervon and Cicero). I like them.

and I did end up actually dying my hair (way back on april 3rd). it’s rather fun.

If you haven’t seen the original I Like Tuhtles thing, look no further.

Eyes stare up
but something’s in the way
In the Bible only angels have wings
And the rest must wait to be saved

Pieces of us die everyday
As though our flesh were hell
Such injustice, as children we are told
That from God we fell.
Where are my angels?
Where’s my golden one?
Where’s my hope
now that my heroes have gone?

yasashii mono wa totemo kowai kara
naite shimau anata wa yasashii kara

I’m very afraid of kindness
so I end up crying, because you’re kind

More of the same, sort of.

“The glossy preamble crawled under her game and ate her”.

only one more to go! I think what I’ll do is post them all on a separate page with text and explanations… once I get some free time.

This is probably the simplest and, by far, the weirdest of this series. With four drawn today, I’m at 12 finished out of 15… and one of the remaining three is started. Will finish them up tomorrow afternoon!

The line is “she crudely sat there dreamily while two happier beneficiaries peopled her”.

it’s not really intended to be a political piece (why would Canadians come here anyway?) but it’s the first image that came to mind when considering the line and I know better than to argue with my gut on these things.

categories: what is this, anyway? animal? person? scene? I don’t have any word to describe “anthropomorphic land masses”.

I think whenever I post a painting under finished, I really mean “haha, just kidding, get back to work”.

It would seem that I’ve neglected to post other intermediary stages, but you can see that this is much different from what I last showed here.

it’s not done yet, I have to retouch all the areas of skin where I painted green over it by accident… despite the use of masking tape… uuuuugh. much better photos will come once it’s done.

From the same assignment/series as Techie in Your Hands.

The line is “It felt like her dropshippers went on conveniently after her spicing climax”. I’m pretty happy with the helicopters, personally.

I’ve actually got 7/15 drawings done now (hopefully I can get one or two more done tonight) but I don’t think I’ll post all of them here. A few are… not quite up to standards, I should say. :[
