Partying in Silenceby `priteeboy

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Space Art

A bright and lively space scene to top off the year as I have been doing each year since joining deviantART. This one also tops off the whole decade so it can be considered even more special, even though I left myself with little over a day to do it all

But it was fun to do and stress-free compared to most of my other works these days. and one of my favourite themes of course. Ten years ago I was drawing the exact same stuff...often in crayon

I was planning on even more colours, but I think I'll do that for a nebula-only piece one day. Scenes with planets just don't look as good with every colour in the spectrum. After much experimentation I got this really sick green/purple combination that may not be realistic, but makes a stand

So like, that's it, a nice space scene, especially since I've been neglecting the genre lately, though something tells me I'll never get sick of it

All I can say is The Little Prince grew up and now he commands unimatrix zero. People like you give me hope for the future. Really. If more people try as hard as you, it'll be a cinch for us to collectively stick it to The Man. And we're the type who know better than to replace him with another Man.

Cool comment! Funnily enough I have only heard of the Little Prince from comments on my artwork

I should look into it sometime, or at least get the gist of it

Thanks for faving too!

The little prince touched my heart and made me want to be good. But it also suggests that youth should absolutely question authority. Heres a site where it's been scanned, if you can tolerate piracy.

It's the first book I ever read all by myself.

I think there is a fine line between questioning authority and downright disrespecting it

Most of the time I can trust and respect authority figures. But at the same time I refuse to believe that someone else is "worth more" than me just because they have a fancy uniform or badge. Plus you don't need to look very far to find out about corrupt authority figures. Just look at every kid owned by abusive parents. Every person who was bullied by corrupt police and threatened with being thrown in jail if they don't comply. Luckily I have never been a victim of falling for someone's deception just because they were in a position of power. Though my parents have blatantly lied to me a few times

I appreciate that. Even though my avatar depicts an insane German, I'm part AmerInd. I've been searched for drugs and weapons so many times that I will forever after hate the police. I'm sorry for race baiting, because I also hate race baiters.
