Flowers do not cry.

Like a flower painted to be no longer itself, but an immortal ornament, she wears her make up. Smiling at service, taking it all silently. Deep down, her mind screams. But flowers are not allowed cry.

Flower painting is an old tradition among the inhabitants of Great Land. Painted with a specially crafted dye that slows their natural withering to a point they they last years, the flowers make beautiful ornaments, but are very expensive. They're commonly given as wedding gifts, symbolizing a stable and lasting union.

:bulletyellow: EN :bulletgreen:

Flores não choram.

Como uma flor pintada para não mais ser ela própria, mas um imortal objeto, ela usa sua maquiagem. Sorrindo em serviço, guardando tudo silenciosamente. No fundo, sua mente grita. Mas flores não tem permissão para chorar.


-

Pintura floral é uma antiga tradição dos habitantes de Terra Grande. Pintadas com uma tinta especial que desacelera o tempo com que murcham ao ponto de durarem anos, essas flores fazem ótimos ornamentos, mas são muito caras. São comumente dadas como presentes de casamento, simbolizando uma união estável e duradoura.

Wow... This gives such an incredibly deep feeling of... I don't know. I don't have the words right now, but this somehow makes me feel bad or something. It's incredible; definitely gets the anguish through

Thank you so much for the great comment. It makes me really happy to come here and see a feedback like this.

It's always nice to see my art invokes a feeling in someone, pleasant or not. ^_^

It's not a big deal! It's the the truth!

Hey, while I'me at it, what's the deal with BUM? Is it just art? Is it a comic? I think you said in FA it was gonna be a comic but I don't remember...

OMG I love this kind of illustration so much... I am fond of allegories and symbols in drawings!
Your concepts are always so beautiful, even if sad or melancholic... Nae is so suffering here, it's really touching.

Recently I've been trying to put a lot of story/character related symbolism in my Blade Under Mask pictures! It's been really fun!

Thank you so much dear ;3;
