listened to It Might be Hope by Sara Groves while drawing this

You do your work as best as you can
You put one foot in front of the other.
Life comes and waves and makes its demands
You hold on as well as you're able.

You've been here...
For a long, long time...

But hope has a way of turning its face to you
Just when you least expect it.
You walk in a room and look out the window
And something there leaves you breathless.
You say to yourself,
It's been a while since I felt this,
But it feels like it might be...

Hope...

this song gave me great comfort yesterday. its a beautiful song. but im making giftarts for all of my friends, because they really deserve it. theyve been great support for me these past few weeks, and i want to show my thanks. these will all be alike, since im not living in the basement anymore, where my digital media is. besides, i havent used my sketchbook in a while

this one is for Anzel, since this song reminded me of her predicament. i hope this all comes to an end soon, so you can finally see your friends on the forest. maybe someday, we may meet there.

Heehee, this is a little thing I whipped up last night. Sorry if there are some errors with the skull. I was doing it from memory.
If you guys want me to do one of these for your deer on white paper, I suppose I could do three or so today. Just post your set and your picto, I suppose. 0.o

Some words of wisdom spoken to me during a bad day at work that really reflected on this screenshot style pic.

Credits on pic.

Sorry if i stretch the page.

Edit: i know i forgot his picto D:

Recently, Laruna made this beautiful gift art for me, and I was moved. I decided to return the favor.

Since Laruna mentioned that part of her screen name, Aruna, meant "Sun" or "Sunrise," I was inspired to draw her deer as I see her based on her name. She's sunny, sweet, and brightens up my day, like a sunrise.

I hope you like it, Laruna!
