My logo :D

i painted this over a year ago, it's watercolors. i edited it and made it into a logo :) its a symbol i made inspired by the heartagram and the ying yang, i was watching my HIM dvd and i heard how Ville Valo created the heartagram when he was 20 and how it was like the ying yand with the heart as good and the pentagram as evil. i was listening to the band and watching the videos then the song "in joy and sorrow" came on and i began to get an image in my mind. i grabbed my paints and paper and went to work. the tear is the sorrow and the heart (love) is the joy. it may be my favorite creation :)

Painting - I'm sorry

i always paint what i feel,

and at the time i felt very sorry.

 i said something and my boyfriend took it wrong.

he thought i didn't care about him...and it broke my heart.

thats the last thing i'd want him to think,

i do care about him

alot

the hearts flow into tears to show that with love also comes pain

the heart flows into to tears to say "i love you and i'm sorry"

Painting - Souls Entwined

it is actually quite sad how this painting came to be, i was sad

i call it "Souls Entwined," the sybolism is apparent

the two souls are wrapped in eachother's arms 

and

in love

entwined

within eachother

...

the world around them contrasts

like it's rejected them

they're both rejected in almost the same way

(just as the close colors suggest)

and as they embrace,

a heart is thier shape

this painting is a sign of how i long for love

how i long for my soul to be entwined with another's

The title is inspired by the song "Cyanide Sun" by H.I.M.

One of my favorites...here are the lyrics[from leoslyrics.com]

Should've known how hard it is to stop tearing each other apart

Separating souls entwined with all these labyrinthine lies


I am dead to you, a shadow doomed
My love, forever in the dark
And of all untruths the truest is you
Too close to my heart


This emptiness I've made my home
Embracing memories of dreams long gone
One last caress from the corpse of love is all I want
Underneath the cyanide sun


We've sailed the seas of grief on a raft built with our tears
Looking for a way to disappear for a moment from our deepest fears

I'll be drowning you in this river of gloom
Forever in my heart

This emptiness I've made my home

Embracing memories of dreams long gone
One last caress from the corpse of love is all I want
Underneath the cyanide sun

it makes me think of how i was feeling...but also about love and passion

"souls entwined" ...when you feel that your soul is entwined with someone else's...

you must truly just head over heels for them and you will truly never leave

it's got to be the most beautiful feeling in the world
