Description

YES YES YES I LOVE IT <333 :heart: :heart:

Inspired by Owl City's Tidal Wave...

'I wish I could cross my arms and cross your mind
Cause I believe you'd unfold your paper heart and wear it on your sleeve
All my life I wish I broke mirrors instead of promises
Cause all I see is a shattered conscience staring right back at me
I wish I had covered all my tracks completely
Cause I'm so afraid, is that the light at the far end of the tunnel or just the train
Lift your arms, only heaven knows where the danger grows
And it's safe to say there's a bright light up ahead and help is on the way

I forget the last time I felt brave, I just recall insecurity
Cause it came down like a tidal wave and sorrow swept over me

Depression please cut to the chase and cut a long story short
Oh please be done, how much longer can this drama afford to run
Fate looks sharp, severs all my ties and breaks whatever doesn't bend
But sadly then, all my heavy hopes just pull me back down again

I forget the last time I felt brave, I just recall insecurity
Cause it came down like a tidal wave and sorrow swept over me
Then I was given grace and love
I was blind but now I can see
Cause I've found a new hope from above
And courage swept over me

It hurts just to wake up whenever you're wearing thin
Alone on the outside
So tired of looking in
The end is uncertain
And I've never been so afraid
But I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope
And that makes me feel brave.'

Well first of all i love the art, it is really well put together. Though with the cat i do notice some flaws. When you look at the hind leg that is raised it looks bent at sharp edge and unatural. You should make it bend at the the paw and striaghten the leg out. With the other hind leg it looks curved and should probably be striaghtened out as well. The raised front paw looks a bit small compared to the others.

The paws (im guessing) are under the water. If so they should not be shown or the water around them should be some what transparent. To help give it that underwater affect you should put ripples curving around the front and streaking back as this would naturally happen in water. The waves look fine and making the "spay" around them is a nice touch. I'm also guessing it is a thunder storm in the background and looks real good but the lighting on the cat should probably be from the back and shadow in the front to bring out that effect of a storm more.

This is my first citique so bear with me and about the Rating I don't really like doing that and am not sure what/how to rate... so yeah.
