I'm back boooooooooois . Should have returned to the art world weeks ago but life has been tough (and I mean it; reached new levels of tough this year). My best friend passed away in May and it's just been hell for me and the rest of his loved ones to be honest. I wish I had forced myself to do more art earier though; I forgot how good it is to express your emotions through art. Made this for EQD's Artist Training Grouds; feel free to join the ride: www.equestriadaily.com/2017/07… --------I still feel the grief, but I want to tell this to you all:Enjoy life! Be happy, do whatever makes you happy without hurting others and express yourself freely! Be just as happy as this Vapor and the one I drew before this one. And if you can't be happy, just experience peace for a moment and look at the beauty of the Universe and life; you're so fortunate to be alive! My friend may have lived for just 20 years, but I know of no one else who enjoyed life like he did; which is why I wanted to type this here (I know no one might ever read this, but I don't care). He was so happy because he was authentic to everyone, himself included; he did what he wanted to do, and said everything he wanted to say; and above all, he enjoyed every moment of his free time. For him, to be with his family or with his friends and have a talk with 1+ of us was all he needed to be happy. Maybe no one will ever read this, but just felt like expressing myself. BE GRATEFUL please, be grateful for your loved ones that you can still see and tell them you love them! I miss him A LOT, but I'm just so glad he knew how much his friends loved him, and for the memories we made and the things I learnt from him. It was the honor of my life to be one of his best friends.Thanks for your favs and especially to anyone who is reading this. I love you all
