Pääsiäisenä oli niin mukavat maalauskelit, että olisi ollut synti ja häpeä jättää ne hyödyntämättä. Harmillisesti en ole kuitenkaan aikoihin ehtinyt tekemään luonnoksia, joten letterit piti vaihteeksi vedellä seinällä suoraan nupista. Characteriluonnoksia taas on talven aikana ehtinyt kertymään jonkin verran ja niiden tekemistä olisi (kai) tarkoitus treenailla enemmänkin tämän vuoden aikana, joten...
DeviantArtin puolella characteri herätti eräässä kommentointia ja kysymyksen:
"That is awesome dude, lovin' the vivid color ya used. I like the guy too, is there a major reason behind having his hand in his pants? I mean, seeing that he's talkin' about smartphones with one hand in his pants... It leaves me asking if there's a deeper meaning behind it, or some kind of point your trying to make and all, an artsy fartsy question if you will. Anyway, fantastic job man, diggin' your consistent quality work, keep it up."
Hämmästyttävää kyllä, vastaus oli helppo antaa:
"The guy having his hand in his pants is a part of the sarcastic message of it all; from my point of view our society is increasingly becoming one of false icons, idols and dumb things we consider "holy." I know tons of people who are really into buying the newest gadgets - not because they need them or even know how to use but just to be hip and cool by owning the latest "must have" expensive shit. At the same time not so far away from us people are starving, freezing, have no homes and are generally just miserable.
So, the painting tries to say "stop masturbating and showing off with crap nobody REALLY needs - life's totally about something else in the end and it would do good for everyone to have a look around every once in a while instead of focusing solely on oneself."
I don't want to preach though (since from experience I know it's not going to change much) and therefore I often try to communicate about these things using humor."
