Description Finally something worth submitting and probably the last thing I will be able to submit this month. This is a piece that I feel has really reflects on my mood of late, as many of you know I haven't been the most upbeat of people of late.

The concept of this picture is very well presented, especially with the portrayal of the character looking at the glass and the facial expression. The colors and the background are two big strengths of this picture and I really like how smooth the lines and shading came out too.

Oh jeez, I almost didn't see this because of the unsorted messages I have from being gone. Your strength for being able to pick yourself up even after a lot of negative experiences, that's something. Sometimes you may feel that the quality is not at par with your previous work, but I think what's more important is that you enjoyed yourself in making art. You can always move on to the next piece. I really am at a loss for words with this drawing. Lighting is something I have yet to fully understand for myself, but it's really fun trying to map out how you made good use of it in your picture. This is a minor detail but I want to point out that I like looking at the glass. Which is probably a good thing if you intended it to be a focal point? and the doorkobs are well captured too! Anyway, I hope this is a step in slowly regaining your confidence in yourself.

One of those moments when you stare into the glass and ask yourself that famous question "what's the point?", I do that at times and ask the same question, and yet you hardly get the answer because no one else can answer that question, not even the glass you look at, although we still ask that question.

But however we still come up with one conclusion and that is we just carry on with our lives and eventually the answer will come.

Having these downers is never good and we always feel that the whole world is on top of us or there is alot of weight on us, either way it's something we all know all too common, but in the end we pick ourselves up and say "**** it, life goes on".

And it does, just give it time and you will pick yourself up eventually, in the mean time I hope you feel better soon.

I think also the glass doesn't have an answer because it doesn't have a mouth...thanks for the support. I'm trying to lift myself out of such a mood as I've been having one sod of a year. I hope I can turn it around though.

What's the point? Making people like me happy with pictures like this. That's the point.
