Themata

i am learning slowly
so what am i to see...

it's so good to see
this world is alive
it's so good to see
this world isn't mine
it's so good to see
this world i'm in loves me so...

--song lyrics from 'themata', by karnivool

i have playlists for when i'm writing specific stories, and the pelago playlist is my favourite combination of songs and moods and ugh. at first i thought this song suited pelago specifically, but actually listening to it NOW made me think a bit more of minn. something about looking at the world and taking it all in and being overwhelmed and mystified. that's very... minn.

meanwhile, pelago suits the ferocity of the tune itself. it's so unbelievably cool. :>

so! this is minn's EYE. i set out to paint another one of the million EYE PICTURES you can find on DA (believe me, there was more than enough material to further encourage me), but i wanted it to be less shinyprettyblueeyedwithmascara. you know what i mean.

i also wanted to show off minn's 'eyelashes', which are usually too small for you to notice unless you're THIS CLOSE. i think they're cute.

also also, minn's hair looks like that right there. details, details, details. i wish i could paint a face realistically.

minn, pelago, and the WONDROUS LASHES are miiiiine.

_{i strongly suggest you go listen to that song. right now. GO. [link]}
