Description
A ventriloquist and her broken puppet, broken self, broken soul...This is something I've been working on for ages. I'm trying to keep up my photoshop skills, and thus all of it, exept the scetch, is done in photoshop.
I could say something really deep about the subject but I wan't you to think about it yourselves. What it could symbolize.

So much interesting detail. Her posture and expression - the guilt shows even in the mini preview. The textures are really rich, too.
This shows so much thought and care. Really an awesome piece .

I know you would... but hey, just because I don't feel like I can take comissions right now doesnt mean that I won't in the future! I just have to find a more regular stream of inspiration.

Great linework, great design, loving it.
About symbolism, I trace guilt in the way she looks with her eyes. I she has broken herself perhaps she feel ashamed that she does not live up to others expectations.

Oh, thank you!
Your interpretation is the closest to my own, yet.
How we sometimes break ourselves, trying so hard to be perfect in others eyes. We sometimes treat ourselves so careless. And the shame that someone else would see how flawed we are.
Hm...

You're welcome.
You're so true, it's like overworking an artpiece. At a certain stage it will just get ruined by more polishing.

Använder du ritplatta när du färglägger? Om så, vilket märke etc? 
Jag ÄLSKAR dina bilder, måste jag ju bara tillägga. Skulle vilja se tecknade filmer gjorda av dig ^^ Underbart fint! <3

Japp, jag använder ritplatta sedan några år tillbaka. En Wacom Intuos 3, kan vara ett av mina bästa köp någonsin. Den är hemskt misshandlad men håller ändå, kvalitet!
Jag tackar så hemskt mycket! Tecknad film blir det nog inget av, har aldrig riktigt fallit för animering :/

Lite lustigt att det ser exakt ut som dina traditionella ^^ Men fortsätt så. Din stil är tuff och originell

Haha, hur menar du med exakt som mina traditionella? Tema kan jag absolut hålla med om, men teknikmässigt? Inte riktigt, rätt långt ifrån

Jag såg först inte ens att dom var digitala, är väl ungefär det jag menade
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nej, jag trodde verkligen inte du menade något illa heller, blev bara lite nyfiken. ^^
Ja, jag försöker verkligen vara konsekvent med hur jag målar, oavsett om det är trad. eller digitalt.

Okej, vad bra
Mm, jag skulle också vilja hitta min stil. Jag experimenterar fortfarande med olika stilar och sätt

Possibly a representation of the loss of one's ability to project the desired image of oneself in daily life because of a traumatic event?

could be, could be, that's one idea I hadn't thought about, but it's a good one! It's interesting to see what others think of

Really good. ^_^ Are you asking people what they think it symbolizes?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I guess I am, it could be interesting to see what people make of it ^^

Hmm...Maybe it could mean that she thinks that she just going with the norm and being a puppet on a string. Allowing herself to be controlled. lol, I'm deep man. ^_^

That's a good interpretation! ^^
It's good to be a little deep sometimes.
