Description I was the first,
the first one to exist.
I will be the last,
the final one to perish.
For I am all,
all that once was,
all that is,
all that will be.
For I am...
Time.

Finally it is done, my work closely related to my old work Eternity, one I personally still see as one of my favourites of all time, regardless of how old it gets. I still see it as some kind of milestone.

This work was not only inspired by my strange love for time and everything related to it, it was also inspired by my dragon clock (on the wall of my bedroom, right above this laptop. I love that clock so much).

First time I used white gel pens! Okay, you can clearly see it was my first time using them, but they did give some cool effects, in my opinion.

The wheels of time bind us all. We have a finite amount of time to create and co-create, yet we have the ability to exist outside the confines of our chosen time (if we seal ourselves in the work we leave behind). Each work of an artist binds a piece of the artist to itself, and has the potential to travel into eternity. The challenge of the artist is to create works that speak to the human soul, so that the artist can live on in the minds and hearts of those who are touched by the art.

This artwork tells me (as I've always believed) that I'm not the creator/sustainer of time, but I do have the potential to defy time, and live on into eternity.

The wheels of time will never stop. How will you impress yourself upon the wheels of time?
This wonderful comment by *artsoldier77 is something I'd like to share with everyone.

I hope you love this piece as much as I do!

Thank you ^^

I think I simply love dark backgrounds, they have something mysterious and you can make lovely light effects that way

I spent a lot of time especially drawing the gears. They took much longer than I expected. xD

time is a real cool thing but trying too understand how it works is another thing (trust me i read homestuck and theres lotsa time travel and time related thingy and too understand these you gotta not try to understand them wich is kinda weird XD)

Time is indeed a very mysterious, and at the same time very simple thing. That's why I find it so fascinating.

You know what really grinds my gears? This drawing.

Okay, bad puns aside, the dragon looks amazing like that upfront, and altough I have no understanding of those gel pens, it seems they did really make the drawing look more beautifull~ ^^


It's always good to see work like this, it shows improvement and strife, two things I'll be ''striving'' (There it goes again) for in the future ^^

(As weird as it may seem I love that kind of puns... well, in a limited amount xD)

Thank you for your compliments, and, more important...


Go for it!

Omg! That is so amazing. I love it! And the little poem is very nice too. The gel pens added a really nice touch and it looks great

Thank you ^^

I've been trying forever to make this kind of effect, gel pens just make it so much easier. I think I understand better how they work now, so my next will probably be even better.
