smoke:
its thematic for me i guess, i tend to use it alot in my work. superheros have capes, terri moore has hair, i have smoke...
smoke:
its whats left over after somethings been used, been consumed. smoke and ash.
and i can relate to that in a very real way. i have mentioned perhaps that i have grown tired these past months, i have given so much of myself to others that i have said that ive felt like a worn t-shirt, and identify with cigarettes, used for a purpose and having fulfilled that, discarded.
i guess i feel like smoke sometimes too.

Hey don't be so depressed, come on chin up! You have your art and as a bonus, a working body and functioning mind! Ditch the users and if possible get a dog! heehee! Just my 50cents there. I like how you've drawn the smoke btw!
first off thank you for your advice and for commenting. here in the united states at least the term is giving ones 2 cents. (which is the worst tip you could give to a waitress/waiter, worse than leaving nothing. as for the issue of depression, yeah thats something that ive been dancing with since, well forever. the body is getting older and without dental, medical, and vision, not to mention the fact that my diet is dictated by my current extremely low income situation, well... ill leave it at that.
anyway, it means alot to me that you come back and comment on a semi-regular basis. thank you tj.
It's hard to find that balance, between finding time for yourself and to give to other people. It can be a struggle sometimes but I suppose that's what life's about. Challenges, and how you work to get through them. Live passionatly, and love what you do to satisfy your needs. Make your own happiness!
Really nice. He looks downtrodden - just worn out. The smoke is a great visual
