Heh heh, here's a piece I've been working on for the past week or so. It features two young boys and inspired a recent RP of of mine.
Since I need to get my arse busy producing prints for an upcoming con, I decided to draw a pair of pretty French boys sitting in a Royal rose garden. Of course, I knew I wanted one to be a prince--because I just love snobby, spoiled princes--and the second would be a peasant of somesort. But as I continued to draw, other possibilities seemed to arise. The dark-haired boy looks like he could be foreign, Greek, perhaps. He also doesn't look dirty or thin, which indicates he's been well-kept--perhaps the prince has taken him in to care for him. While I was working on the sketch I couldn't get what the prince might be saying out of my head:
"Kiss my feet, barbarian!"
And by the look on the other boy's face he could be thinking various things. I suppose it depends on his personality and the perspective of the viewer. I really like it when people view my drawings in different ways. I put symbols in a lot of my art both intentionally and unintentionally, which is a little strange. I wonder if that's just a coincedence. Either way, I especially did so in this piece. As I colored it the different... meanings popped up all over the place without me even realizing it at first. But I won't say anything more, because I want those who appreciate the deeper meanings of art to look for themselves.
*cough* Anyway, I need constructive critique! It's not quite done yet, but I want to make it as good as I can before I print it. And don't mind the obnoxious credits, they're only there for the time being.

The picture is gorgeous and intriguing. I like how you only give bits and pieces of what might be in the description, because then if someone like me looks at it, the mind overflows with possibilities.
