Description

_{This has to be one of the most beautiful, inspirational, poetic songs I've ever heard. It makes me want to cry happy tears. Yes... it means a lot. <3

I was so inspired that I whipped out the tablet and photoshop elements and did the first full CG picture I've done since about 8 months ago. I'm actually really proud of it too, for the first time in a while. I've been through a sort of art rut (even if other people didn't think so, I myself haven't liked much of what's come out on paper lately).

Thanks to the Matches and their incredibly inspiring music, and the increased amount of spare time I've had for the past week that's probably about to end soon. I will cherish it though. I WILL.

This is my character Sarcelle, who, if you don't know, is sort of my "alternate/dream fursona" who represents my dreams, hopes and wishes. She seemed to fit this song really well. :]

Clouds Crash, by The Matches
(amaaazing lyrics, please read them, they're worth reading. I hope they're right, because there was only one place I could find them since this is a really new song. )

Clouds crash on the hillside
Set to sail your soul at high tide
High time you left the shadow
Did wait in the meadow
Let it follow far below

Oh oh oh

Woah, what a ceiling
All the angels cracked and peeling
Revealing constellations
One day you will name one
After a boy you knew
When you were back in middle school
and

engraved his names in love notes
every one retained though
in a box behind your raincoats
oh those days when rainy days meant
tracing faces raindrops made when
racing cross the windshield
the pace of life was unreal

oh though how it quickens
how the slope began to slicken
you slip into a grin then begin with where you been and
in my linen you are skin again
la dad a da da da

oh oh clouds crash on the hillside
Set to sail your soul at high tide
High time you left the shadow
Did wait in the meadow
In my linen you are skin again

Hours on photoshop elements 1.1. Raindrops used as texture from photos I found on google... so credit goes to those people for taking those pictures... Also a texture from somewhere I don't remember on top of it all.

But mostly, a lot of work. ahahaha. Clouds are so fun to do on photoshop. <3

WELL YAY.
