Fast Art Stuff: Who Cares?


This piece is interesting enough to talk about. It’s one of my favourite. It has this unrevealing story behind it, that’s tragic but at the sometime really sad.


It’s about a girl. Who need to be listened. No one realize her. Until she get hurt all by her self. Alone in the unforgiving world full of deceitful people all around. Who cares about what I’m feeling? She said. She just stand there like nothing around her make her move. Close her eyes, and realize the only who listen to her is herself and God. and that’s enough for her.
Nobody knows or cares or understands about what her state of feelings  are. She want to say goodbye, if she is never be appreciated by anybody. People would leave her in the corners, left her sobbing in to the night. To the darkness and the light comes in the next day, but no one would knock on her door.  Nobody cares. So that’s why she asked:
Who cares?
Multiple times and counting them all, one by one.
During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
- George Orwell
I found that quote just recently. And those two paragraphs just tell the story behind what I drew and paint.
It’s kind of look death , and gothic style in some parts especially the red lips. Yeah, I don’t know why did I do that? But all and all it came out beautiful. I think she resembles my Original Character named Astraea or maybe the sister Virtue. But I’m positive this is Astraea. These OC’s of mine are sisters. Their hair are very colourful according to my state of emotions. I haven’t drew both of them in a while so this one is kind of give me a feeling of relief cause at some what they’re still alive.
“Who Cares?” Is really self expression kind of art. I did it with paint, drawing pen, and pencil. I sketch them up in the car and then ink it while there was a activity in my church, and paint it right away when I’m home. I was really angry at someone back then and maybe that anger got the best of me at some point. And this picture show me that side of me.
This artwork works for me, and I got the message. But that doesn’t mean as long as I understand it the picture is okay. I hope people who see this artwork see the message too.
