"Many years."
Sunday, April 9, 2006
After a week's hard work, a very, very simple one. :) Thinking about River's losses again, I recalled what her father, Gabriel Tam, once said to her, when she was still a child. When Simon got his dedicated source box, and River wanted to know when she... and her dad simply answered: "Many years." Well, when I thought what "many years" later life really had brought River, I felt a pang of anguish; so many broken promises; so many shattered dreams for such a highly gifted, bright young girl. :( That is what this scene depicts; River, on couch, not entirely having the future she was supposed to have, recalling those words of her father. It ain't much, I know; but it has emotional value for me, regardless.

My only negarive criticism is that the blending is awesome, but at too low a color depth.
No worries. You still ROCK!

There's a nice textural quality in this one, and I like the minimal colors (also like how you brought some of the red out in lil River's cheek, draws the eye over in that direction.)
Really, in terms of impact I feel this may be one of your better ones. This one made me stop and think a bit, take in the moment. Hard not to feel sorry for River there as she looks at her past and the future she lost :(
Thanks for the lovely.
Once again you make our thoughts stop and be aware of River's plight. And with such beauty. This is elegant and heartrending, Asarian.
Good job, my friend.
keep at it A keep at it (gypsy)
