Final step of the healing, now let time do its thing..
It still hurts so badly though...

I love you Prince.
Rest in peace baby.
:heart:

In my gut I felt like I needed to do this. For myself and him.
I'm going frame shopping tomorrow, before I leave for the week, and its being hung where I'll be able to see it, every morning when I wake up.
This still needs a tiny bit of work though, mostly with the background.

I can't even begin to explain how much better it looks in life though. I'm really starting to despise both my scanner and camera.

I chose to use my pastels and velour paper for this personal piece because of the softer quality of the art, dreamy almost.

And finally, this means so, so much to me, comments are extremely appreciated but critiques will not be dealt with kindly.

Touching. Truly. I know how you feel, I lost a beloved cat a few months ago.

I love the effect you've created. It's like a dreamy window into the paper, into heaven. You've done a very good job. :)

Here's to Prince and Mittens (my cat). :heart: May they rest in peace.

Someday I'm finally gonna let go
I know there's a better way
I wanna know what's over that rainbow
I'm gonna get outta here someday

Cheap point commisions and adoptables!

May they both rest in peace. :heart:

I was aiming for the dreamy look, and I'm glad you think that I achieved it. :)

Whoah. We're in the same shoes - I just drew a "portrait" of my cat that died 1st december 2005. Never managed to move on, so I had to draw him - almost 5 years later. And funny thing is; we have the same title - and the same motive...

I know how you are feeling.

Great painting by the way, he was a really cute cat!

"It doesn't really matter if he's "popular." A person who is truly popular is compassionate, friendly, and trustworthy. So, if he's not any or one of those, then he's not popular, he just has quite a bit of friends." ~sawahgrace
