Wow, I really like this one. The lyrics look so cool, and the picture is very nice. I definetly love the shoujo-style, and it's cool to see Takeuchi-sensei's influence. The coloring is really well done, and I really am impressed with how well the violin is rendered. Great job! That's a great character design, and I hope your friend had the happiest 19th birthday ever!

This do be for the birthday of the stupendous Lynne-chan! =D Happy nineteeth, mah homey! The last year of your teenage-hood begins now! Well...um...okay, it began about nine hours ago, but...still it's the thought that counts, right? ^.^;; And I am of course thinking good thoughts about my bestest girlfriend in all the land, who is so amazingly talented that I am constantly looking forward to seeing more of her work, and who has been my pal through thick and thin. I love you, friend Lynne!
Okay, anyway, pic talky now. I have decided that my friends for their birthdays if I know when those birthdays are shall hereby receive...manga-style songpics!! Muhahahahaaaaaa! Oh I'm so evil. Well, I did one for Kat-chan (in Okuda style--this one is Takeuchi style ^_^;) and wanted to do more! Eheh... But anyhow, I had already made such a thing of Lynne herself, so for today I made one of her avatar on the Napping Cat's Dream forum, Lhyvohn! =B This young lady is a wandering violinist who pops up in places and makes music with people. And she has a tricorn hat! pointpoint Witness it! Ooo, and look at the sunrise-ness. Yes, 'tis rise and not set. The theme of this pic is supposed to be something about new beginnings, since Lhyvohn is always travelling and starting fresh. ^.^ The song is 'Anywhere Is' by Enya and also goes along with that idea. >.9 Garg, my scanner R2 is a lunatic and kept chopping off either the bottom or the top edge of this, but I found a way to half fix it through the use of Picture It...still, the top line of lyrics is fuzzier than the rest because I had to splice it in. o.o I hope the whole thing still looks okay. Cuz it is for Lynnay's b-day and I want her to be happyyyy! At any rate, here are the lyrics here, too, so as to prevent too much squinting. ^-^;
'Anywhere Is'
I walk the maze of moments But everywhere I turn to Begins a new beginning But never finds a finish I walk to the horizon And there I find another It all seems so surprising And then I find that I know
You go there, you're gone forever I go there, I'll lose my way We stay here, we're not together Anywhere is
The moon upon the ocean Is swept around in motion But without ever knowing The reason for its flowing In motion on the ocean The moon still keeps on moving The waves still keep on waving And I still keep on going
You go there, you're gone forever I go there, I'll lose my way We stay here, we're not together Anywhere is
I wonder if the stars sign The life that is to be mine And will they let their light shine Enough for me to follow? I look up to the heavens But night is clouded over No spark of constellation No Vela, no Orion
The shells upon the warm sands Have taken from their own lands The echo of their story But all I hear are low sounds As pillow words are weaving And willow ways are leaving But should I be believing That I am only dreaming?
You go there, you're gone forever I go there, I'll lose my way We stay here, we're not together Anywhere is
To leave the trail of all time And let it make a dark line In hopes that I can still find My way back to the moment I took the turn and turned to Begin a new beginning Still looking for the answer I cannot find the finish
It's either this or that way It's one way or the other It should be one direction It could be, on reflection The turn I have just taken The turn that I was making I might be just beginning I might be near the end.
^.^ Happy Birthday, Lynne!! Have a good one!
(PS: Now you know why I went all 'O.o;;;;' when you mentioned Lhyvohn giftart last night. 9.9;;;;;)
