Some people might not consider me an "art-eest"...but I made sure to prove them wrong with this hard-hitting, philisophical piece. In it, I tried to capture the very essence of my homestead, pouring much effort and even my soul into this particular piece. I tried to capture the feeling of the suburbs with bright, vibrant colors. Notice the textures I used for the grass and the bushes. Notice how the grass is a darker green than the shrubbery? I think I brought about that effect quite nicely. With the smoke coming out of the chimney, that shows that within my house there is a fire currently going, denoting that things are quite quaint and comfy inside, giving the picture a sense of overall tranquility. I tried to express this feeling so much that I showed even the very sun in the sky as being content! It's a beautiful, gorgeous day outside, and there is nary a cloud in the sky, save for one...and even that looks pretty non-threatening. Then, for the crowning addition to the drawing, I decided to add...well, myself! I made sure to improve my work on the proportions and get the linework just so. I'm happy with the result. If I get the free time, I'll try and work on more visual masterpieces...though with all the effort it takes to make one of these, there's no guarantee on one being made in the near future.

I hope you enjoy it!
