Chasing the Sun

EDIT:// 28 of august 2014

Hi,

This is the artwork I placed contributed to my artbook Charity Artbook.
Sales are still open so feel free to take a look:
Storenvy There's still physcial copies left as well as digital copies.
For more info please go to our group page. Proceeds are donated to Shelter Box

This artwork means a lot to me, because there is so much of me prevalent in the artwork. The colours are carefully selected and all mean something. Everything, even the knick knacks on the shelf, the background, the clothes. literally EVERYTHING means something to me and that's why this took so friggen long to draw. Also i'm really slow at drawing and procrastinate too much


There are also little eastereggs around the picture, see if you can find them! clue: ghibli and vendetta.

I hope you guys like it, I put a lot of effort into it and it's probably my proudest artwork yet. >//w//<

Time take: A good solid 70+ hours worth (I know, i'm gawd dang slow TT^TT )
Program: Photoshop CS6

This is my piece for the Charity Artbook I am organizing
The theme being Memories. So go check it out!!
My memories is more about knowing myself, and remembering and staying true to myself.
See those empy cupboards at the side? well in the finished artbook they will be crammed full of knicknacks and things that mean something to me, memories from my past. In fact, EVERY SINGLE THING I DO IN THIS ARTWORK RELATES TO ME. objects, scenery, the colour of the roses, the pattern of the pants etc. EVERYTHING!

This artbook will be aprox 50 pages long, fully coloured, 8.5"x11" size (aprox) and will contain artists from all around the world who have volunteered their time and efforts into creating wonderful artwork for the world. But not only that, they will be drawing for the people who no longer have a home or their loved ones. We aim to help the world just that little bit, starting with this artbook.

There will be exclusive interviews, artworks sketches and a comic is currently under consideration
It also includes nearly 60 artists with more to come!:
