More from ~fadingtwilight0

Hello, Stranger Hello, stranger, eyes so distant,
Staring out at sea
Would a lonely man like you
Like some company?

Stand a little closer now
No need to feel forlorn
So what's the tale to match your face
Abandoned and battle worn?

Your rattling whispers make me shiver
As chill reveals our breathes
Watching you look out so far
Makes my heart protest

This nostalgic feeling pulsing through
As your eyes fade dull
The gentle teardrop freezing 'fore
It gets the chance to fall

I sense my breath begin to slow
The thought now piercing through
Hello, stranger, don't feel alone
'Cause I'm nobody, too
Here It Comes Lying beneath the morning stars
Waiting to draw ink
Upon paper

Drinking in fresh dewdrops
Perched on waking grass
A delightful shiver comes with breath
As I wait

Daytime darkness shuts my eyes
Still whispering for rest
For Time pauses for
The sun's awakening

Curved fingers numbing
In brisk early hour air
Frosted lightly

Heart beats quicken
Sensing the hour
A chirp from the early bird

Sunshine touches her fingers
To the earth's lips
Warming her gently

Wind and breeze dance away
Swaying young grass blades
Sprinkled with dew
An illusion of a glittering sea

Warmth touches my face
Frost melts away
Colors unhide themselves

Catcher in the Rye, Holden Caulfield

--

One of the most idiotic assignments I've had to do for awhile, in my opinion.. Create a myspace for Holden Caulfield, main character of Catcher in the Rye. I'm in charge of the picture. Thus, here it is. He's always wearing a red hunting hat, which makes him look rather.. idiotic. What can you do though?

Time: 45-60mins
Media: Adobe Photoshop CS2

Holden Caulfield (c) J.D. Salinger
Drawing belongs to myself, ~fadingtwilight0

The drawing is good...your English teacher obviously has no understanding of the characters in the books (s)he teaches, though. MySpace is the last place on Earth Holden ever would have gone...would have given him some serious headaches.
...I guess websites don't really count as "on Earth," but you know what I mean.
