Description

Full title is:
Half way between the gutter and the stars.

Done usinga Wacom Intuos3 with Artrage3 and Photoshop CS5.

An illustration piece to accompany some lyrics/poetry for a very talented and nice friend of mine.



Poem :

I’ve been leaving these words in a paper trail, just like the feelings I have that read in Braille. These are our lives, framed in half fiction, tracing old lines and caught in the friction.

The honeymoon is over but the fireworks just started, whilst I’m hanging in the back room with the rest of the broken hearted. Will we recover or will we just relapse? The stereo is screaming “PERHAPS, PERHAPS!”

I’ve got my fingers crossed as I’m falling asleep, in the hope I resurface for the third time this week. Miss Optimism looks sad with her bright eyes closed, like she’s hiding a truth that it kills her to know.

I’m forward thinking in a whirlwind of nostalgia and playing out the b-side of a cassette that you marked “summer”. I welcome creativity, I say hello to new situations, these words are open to your own interpretations.

Our resolutions always amount to nothing, I seem to make more mistakes than sense. I’m the staples in this centrefold, I’m half way between the gutter and the stars.
