Description

Life is full of loss. It is Ok to feel sorrow for what is gone, but remember after every loss is a gain.
Whatever happens don't get lost in what you had in the past. Keep an eye for the opportunities you have ahead.

Just at the right time. I've lost someone I love a lot a few weeks ago, and I feel really alone and hurt since. I feel like my life is empty and mundane without them, and I'm overwhelmed by regrets, there are too many things I would have loved doing with them, but it's too late now. I've lost a lot of self-confidence, I have difficulties to trust others and myself - I easily get upset or scared, I feel constantly under pressure, it's hard to me to eat and sleep properly, and I can't walk through my town without this painful feeling that gets me every time I see a place that reminds me of them. It's really hard for me to live day after day, and to things I normally do. But paradoxally, I know that it's during the most aching moments of our lives that we grow up the most. Tough times are here to help us rise and become stronger. This is why, instead of becoming a slave of my pain, I will use it as a learning from life, which will help me to climb higher. Because no matter how dark and hurtful seems my present, I know that somewhere, a brighter future is waiting for me. So I will hold on, and keep moving towards it.

BUT ! Enough talking about myself. The reason that brought me here is actually because I found this picture really interesting, so I'd like to try to give a constructive comment about it - let's go !

So, hmm. The concept of this illustration is really simple - it's basically someone who is crying. But a lot of details make it look really expressive :) First, I love the way you made her hand sustaining her face, like it was going to break down. The other hand, who is wiping her tears, shows indirectly the viewver the most important part of the drawing - the tears and the eyes. Speaking of the eyes, you made them absolutely perfect, not because they are "pretty", but because they do exactly what eyes are supposed to do : carry emotions. I can feel a lot of sorrow in them, and, because she's looking directly at the viewer, it makes her feeling of helplessness even more touching.

This is such a powerful and emotional piece~ You did an amazing job !
