Here's a little teaser WIP of my piece for @eternalbondzine!!!
This is after the first layer of pastel chalk. There will be at least one more and then a final detail layer in chalk and pencils (and maybe markers)! I'm a little in love and very excited to finish this piece!! <3

AKUSAIMONTH 2015: BERSERK Day 16: SET C - “Disappearance”
I was watching as your light went out, and I felt nothing.
When he came for me, I fought with everything I had. He had beaten me before, but surely this time, surely with all the not-hatred I felt for him, I could win.
I couldn't.
As I felt myself vanishing, the pain and the sadness finally caught up on me. It was just for one moment, but I felt an overwhelming hurt. In that moment I wanted nothing more than to go back in time, back to when things were okay. I wanted nothing more than to be whole again.
But there was nothing to be done. You were gone, and so was I.
In the end, it was all for nothing.

Akusaimonth: Berserk Mode Day 4: Sparkle
Those days with you were the happiest of my life.
Here, have my storyboard for day 3 as a small bonus!
AKUSAIMONTH: BERSERK Day 5: SET C - “Lyrics (Hearts A Mess)”
[ Pick apart the pieces of your heart Let me peer inside Let me in where only your thoughts have been Let me occupy your mind as you do mine ] [ Hearts A Mess - Gotye ]
“We shouldn't. Something about the castle isn't right, I can feel it.” “All the more reason to uncover what's going on! We need to know what it is, so we can protect town!” “Protect town? And how on earth are we going to do that?!” “We'll know once we know what's the problem in the first place!” “... Seriously, you're such an idiot.” “Aww, come on, Isa, I need you on this! I can't do it on my own!” “Then how about not doing it at all?” “Uh, no. Bad idea.” “... I really can't talk you out of it, can I.” “So you are helping me!” “You knew exactly that I would.” “Hehe. I just know I can count on you!”
I kept quiet about the way I felt, all this time. I was happy with being near you, with being your friend. I couldn't risk losing you. Yet as time moved on I realised that your presence filled up more and more of me. Whatever I did, whatever I thought, you were always a part of it. At the same time I felt so distant from you. I know that I kept things from you, things you could never know, but were you hiding things from me as well?

This was this late summer's/early autumn's "I've got nothing to do for at least five minutes D:" picture. Yeah, I always have my drawing stuff with me for cases like that. xD
I actually made an interesting experience with this picture:
When I was drawing at a convention, a few guys who thought they were oh so funny watched me draw and one of them asked if they were kissing. (I just answered absolutely matter of fact, that if they were kissing their lips would actually touch. Of course that was not what he meant, but he didn't dare to open his mouth again after that, so yeah. xD)
On another occasion an elderly lady saw me draw and she was seemingly disturbed by the motif. I overheard her retelling what she saw to her husband and she on the other hand discribed it as "two men fighting".
At first I dismissed the "kissing" as well as the "fighting" understanding as wrong (compared to my own of course), because neither of those were what I wanted to show. After a while though I realised that this wasn't quite true. Those interpretations are still not "right", but they are not completely wrong as well. They are just ... incomplete. Seen together though they can actually get pretty close to my own understanding. Each of those people saw one of the tensions I had planned, but failed to see the other.
And in my opinion that's extremely interesting! I just love to hear other people's interpretations on my pictures! Especially on those that are actually not supposed to show a specific scene but more ... a state of mind or a certain mood or the nature of ... whatever. On pictures that are symbolic. Like this one here.
Dia (she/her); I draw because I love it ✨ Enjoy your stay!
