-- This was so long that i just copied from my DA account --

Gah its done
...
I thought i'd have been able to write pages and pages of what this means to me, but now that the time has come i cant find the right words. So forgive me if this is all over the place.
First off i'll start by saying --
***** Happy crappy Easter *****
Because the initial idea of this was based around my ideas of easter.
Easter is such a strange holiday, first we celebrate death, and then we worship a zombie. Er i know this isn't exactly what easter is about but its all it makes me think of. Death.
This also makes me think of all holidays in general. Its pretty much all mechanical and stereotypical. We go out buy junk and celebrate for a day - easter, Christmas, new years, mothers day etc. - Thats why i put the mechanical crosses all through the background, they are just representing the mechanical repetition of easter.

That was were i started this idea from.
But then i went through a rough patch with a few people and just lost all initiative to finish this.
I felt hollow and drained from all the crap i was going through for a period...so the girl has nothing inside her.
Thats also when i added the happy little harmless looking egg spilling out deadly cocaine. She wants anything to escape. It represents how innocent things can seem, but beneath the glassy exterior there are deadly, wicked, evil and nasty things waiting. I found that also worked with my idea for easter, my idea about people and experiences in life..... It'll defiantly fuck you up
But then after i started to pick myself up i realized i needed all the bad things to happen to me.
Without the bad we cannot find strength.
If life was all good and easy for us we would be weak and frail. We need trials and experiences that test every bit of us so we can gain strength and courage to face our next trial.
The cocaine spills away as we learn how to deal.
We will come out on the other side happier and more full of strength and power.



Hmm i hope i make some sense...i cant remember what else i wanted to say. I know there is heaps more but i'll let you guys come up with your own ideas about this now.
I think i am happy with it.
Although i feel that there will someone or something that will just tear this apart and not see it for what it is.

... Forgot to add that the purpley x's on her arms are from when i had that dream about being kissed on the arms which left poisonous glowy purple x's




Thanks to those who bothered to read this !
