Artist's Comments

Well, I know I've haven't been adding much stuff to my dA gallery lately because of the coming exams and lack of time. Someone just passed away recently. He was my ex-baby-sitter's dad. Yes, I had a baby-sitter when I was just a toddler but even now when I'm 14, coming to 15, I'm still pretty close to her and I can tell she's pretty sad over her father's death. Well, this image mainly contains of two components-my feelings and excellent stock. Seriously, I thought I wouldn't be able to find the right stock because the idea in my head was pretty vague. The idea struck me when I was having maths lesson in school and it was so good, I didn't want to forget it so I sketched the main outline somewhere first.

I'm not sure whether or not you guy can understand the image. The lying horse is supposed to be dead on the cliff near the skies and his spirit rises up in some horse action to show that even when his spirit has left its shell, its soul remains alive in his loved ones' hearts. The rose that is losing petals show the amount of tears that was shed over his death and how they were so precious and genuine but like a wilthing rose, the tears shed by his loved ones' are signals of sadness and grief. This image is dedicated to my baby-sitter and her family, including her late father. R.I.P.

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
