- fire escapes -by ~mutsy

(reupload since da was being buggy last night)

i wanted the title to be - fire escapes lead us to heaven - but it wouldn't fit. but that's the real title anyway, so there.

in the song 'holy names' by pretty girls make graves, it's part of the chorus (the fire escape thing) and the first time i heard it a long while ago, it automatically inspired me to do SOMETHING with it. but i never got around to it... but after school tuesday, while waiting for my mom to pick me up, my cd player (which is set to random) started playing it, and it reminded me of the picture ideas i had. this is the first one, there may be another, if i get unlazy and stuff... and i also have to focus on my drawing project a little. but i'll try and do most of that in class.

so this is a girl wearing fake wings and a fake halo finding a door someone labeled 'fire escape' (it's hard to see unless ya zoom in or somethin) and the other side could be heaven, or it could not be heaven... it could just be a lot of bright light, but yeah.

the girl is kinda weird looking since i drew her small for some reason... i couldn't fit as many details in as i wanted, but i like her anyway. her one leg looks skinnier than the other but that was a mistake in inking. yeah i did this in ink because i felt like it. monkeys. everything but the lines on the girl was done in photoshop 7.

hope ya like

thats... really cool. its nice to look at. its an awesome color scheme. and i love that you can take so many meanings out of it. i like the fact that shes looking through a door that leads to nothing cuz there is so much that could be there.
