 This is a drawing i just finished of Syd Barrett (real name Roger Keith Barrett), from the band Pink Floyd. I adore him :3 And, i was debating on naming this piece "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" THIS IS DONE IN PENCIL, NOT CHARCOAL! so don't ask if it's charcoal XD And, this is the second person i've ever drawn. the first human i've drawn was John Lennon. And you can definately see an improvement :3 Anyway, now for the pic description. please read it Do you see the whitish lines where his jacket thing is? Those aren't supposed to be there, but my damn scanner RAPED this >.>; that's all solid blackish, but alas, there were wrinkles in the paper and my scanner had to be a bitch and pick up the shine. So that's why there's streaks when there shouldn't be any. damn scanner *kills scanner* i spent a few good hours on this, trying to get it right. and no, it's not perfect. the eyes are a tiny bit too close together, and the right eye is a tiny bit too far down -_-;;; but i did my best to make it look right. But yes, i love Syd. He;s the founder of Pink Floyd, and the one who had a nervous breakdown from drugs and got kicked out...it's so sad... mrrrr... But now i shall leave you with some song lyrics that go with the picture, because i named this pic after the song. Why? Roger Waters, also from Pink Floyd, wrote this about and for Syd. There's a story that goes with this song, but i don't feel like writing it. "Shine On You Crazy Daimond" - Pink Floyd Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun. Shine on you crazy diamond. Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky. Shine on you crazy diamond. You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom, blown on the steel breeze. Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine! You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon. Shine on you crazy diamond. Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light. Shine on you crazy diamond. Well you wore out your welcome with random precision, rode on the steel breeze. Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine! I love you Syd :3 Time: 5-8 hours Media: Pencil (a "Try-Rex" pencil and a regular pencil.) Drawn while listening to: "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" by Pink Floyd, also Dark Side of the moon, by the floyd as well :3 |

We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.
