So I had a little gap in between other pieces, and I decided to try something a bit different and here is the result! It was initially supposed to be a simple 'colour pop' drawing, with just the one Tulip in colour and the rest in graphite, and a young Badger because I think they are adorable. But then I was chatting to Studio Mascot #1 and she came out with the most beautiful quote. She described the scenario of one person making another person sad, and she said they were "taking their colours away". My heart just melted. And I suddenly felt inspired to incorporate that into this drawing. I thought it might be interesting if I added some colour to the parts of the Badger that were closest to the Tulip, creating the idea that the Tulip is giving the Badger 'colour' (or hope, life, happiness, vitality.. whatever works for you). Badgers are so often associated with being pests or carrying diseases, and are overlooked as beautiful members of our wildlife community. I chose to draw a young Badger to portray the innocence and curiosity we have in childhood, which is lost as we become adults. As well as this, I chose Tulips as a symbol of the beauty of Nature, which very often gets ignored and taken for granted (and worst of all - destroyed) in this modern world where devices and gadgets dominate our lives. This could just as easily apply to people. We spend so much time looking at screens that we sometimes forget to look at each other. So the message is this - If ever you feel lost, or alone, remember who you are. Love and life are always there, you just need to open your eyes and see them. And when you do see them - hold onto them and nurture them. Follow the progressive journey of this piece at my Blog Post "Shades of Life" Creation Process
