Wonderland

Posted by scarlet_hue at 03:00 PM on April 25, 2008.

These past weeks i've been brooding a lot. Probably because for 3 weeks i was always left alone in the house with nothing but house pets as companions. And this goddamn summer heat is doing nothing to appease my situation. From a very hectic hospital life, this sudden surge of inactivity is very unwelcome. Am i making sense here? I thought so. My boredom is making me spew out nonsense.

Finding Wonderland

New deviation, check it out! :D

This is the first time i ever tried watercolor in corel and boy, it was sooooo hard! Watercolor is so unpredictable.. but i like it's subtle color effect so i worked my butt for it anyway... and i love the result. :D It may not be at par with other deviants' work but still, i'm proud of it! And i sooooo love the red hair and freckles on the girl. I tried blue, brown and black hair on her before but it's red that hits the spot. :D

For the background i intended to to a wonderland city thingy, with cakey buildings and lollipop lamp posts... but with my 733t drawing skills, i just have to give up. So i turned to CLAMP's version of Alice in Wonderland in one of Cardcaptor sakura's episode and viola, i came up with a flying heart with a tophat thingy.. i also added some falling aces just because. It's so not wonderland without the card aces! XD

Down down down the rabbit-hole;
Wonderland is there!
Lead me there, lead me there
so i can be at home!


That's what the text says on the lower right portion of the illustration. I can't seem to get it more visible. Sigh. Photoshop skillz fail zOMG. Anyways, I just made that paragraph up. You'll have to read it in a sing-song manner to get the feel. LOL. Actually, that pretty much sums up what i feel these days. With the mountainload of pressure and responsibilities i have to deal with everyday, i just can't help but want to have an escape route. I want to escape this dull reality and go to a happy place where you can only have fun. No responsibilities, no pressure, no rules. How i wish. I think this is a manifestation of my fear of growing up; to traverse the path to adulthood.. I am desperately clinging to my childhood just to shield me from this looming phase of life. I still feel as if i'm not yet ready.. There are still things i want to do but sadly, there's no room and time for it anymore. I can't really put into words my exact feelings right now, but if there's one word relative to it, it would be desperate. But actually, that's pretty much an understatement.

Damnation! All this sulking and brooding in front of this computer is making me itch for a smoke! That's it, i am giving in to temptation! HAH!

Later!
