*Wheezes and just about splutters into life* *Cough! Cough!*

Hmm....looks like I need to get the Henry on THIS place! :rofl:

Well, hello there everyone and my dear good friends! Yes, yes I know, I need to update my Journal about the Wedding and how that went down, and I also know that I need to upload some Wedding Pics! But, all in good time my faithful compadre's (or what's left of you! XD Sorry for the wait! :noes: )

But, this piece has been staring at me for the last year or so now, in fact, I think I last modified and finished this: 2nd September, 2010! Eeeesh! I REALLY need to stop doing this! >.<; Anyway, less about dates and more about what's actually going on here. :)
-------------------------------------------

To keep it short and sweet...Scarlet (at the age of 15 here) is quietly weeping...silently grieving the loss of her Father when she was just a child. And only crying quietly, so that no one hears her.
For you see, just like the rest of us; Scarlet is the kind of character who wears a "mask". Whenever she's around others; she just pretends that everything is all right with herself, and puts on a brave face when one of her friends need her support. However, more often than not, it is her who needs the shoulder to lean on. But, rather than burden everyone else with her woes on top of the ones they may already have....Scarlet stays silent. Angels tell of how she has been doing this for a number of years, and no matter what anyone of them seem to do to help, she has remained the same. So, they sigh sadly, and can only watch as the vixen slowly leads herself onto the path of self destruction.

--------------------------------------------

So, there you have it! :aww: Hehe, I've actually missed attaching snippets of the story to my work, hope it's enough to digest! <:S Now, as much as I'm happy with the overall concept and layout of this, I've just noticed that the bed frame is slightly askew. :XD: But no, I'm happy with this, especially the shading on the bed sheets, and the effect of the tears; MUCH better than my last attempt. :nod:

Alas, I need to head to work. :hmm: I hope you all enjoy this little update from me! :aww:

Enjoy! :aww: And please, remember the Quiet Ones in the business of society.....it's ever such a lonly place. <:)

In 2009, I lost my mother to swine flu so I know what its like to lose a parent. Poor Scarlet, I wish I could hug her here and lick the tears from the sides of her muzzle and face.

Awwww!! This is so sad and so moving :(. Lovely story behind the picture and well done in creating a mood with the picture. The different blues and cold colours you've used in the picture really help to create a sad feel to the picture and aww poor Scarlet! I really do want to hug her. The detail is superb and I really like how you've drawn the sheets. The pattern on them almost match the flower on the photo frame. And I like how, out of everything in the room, the flower is the only thing giving off light as if to show that there is still hope and Scarlet isn't really alone ;). Anyway! Sorry for the uber late comment and great job :D.
