Hey - you... did you ever attempt to sleep inside my tomb? Did you ever intend to kick from inside this womb...?
I'm trapped here with the walls closing in on me
I'm waiting for her to pull me out.
One day.
Before the vines pull me down.

here is mine. My husband just left. We are getting a divorce. My soul is in the corner, hurting and dark. But looking up, right?
time to get to work...no matter how hard it gets!

http://artpad.art.com/?kh3fpu12vono
That was somewhat therapeutic :)
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kh3bm1e41i8
One more... because it's addicting.
@OMFGitstacy ...very cute :) love the splashed landscape in the thought bubble.
in retrospect, this draw-ring is a little depressing...i swear i'm actually a happy person! :)

Super confused, but always optimistic (even among the chaos of random color splatters n' stuff). =)

i don't know how my soul feels.
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kh179w44ukc
my soul... is going to be eaten i think.
http://artpad.art.com/?kh16u6p4sgc
I just left my boyfriend after 3 years together.
http://artpad.art.com/?kh16ep1fj3pw
my soul feels full and happy and on fire. and dark and heavy. like the earth
http://artpad.art.com/?kh162y1bz7v0
my soul is tired, and stressed and mad at my parents.. and it has a mustache just because the mustache looks awesome and bc i am quite female i cannot grow one
to "DreamsRaven," i really like your drawing! i would totally pay money for that. :)
http://artpad.art.com/?kh12tbkfyzg
my soul is only contented when everythings messy :0
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kh12q0yf13c
The sun is just rising, my soul is not yet complete - the stars and sky are my dreams and love is something I still seek.
http://artpad.art.com/?kh0zov18giio
I simply couldn't live without color.
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kh0x3g1l6pck
My soul is bottled up and there is a space in it for someone to share with but it is so guarded that they reach a barrier. There is also some things on the outside that I have yet to unlock within myself.
http://artpad.art.com/?kh0mts42nmo
I have so much to be happy about. And I am, so happy. But it's stuck underneath so many other things that I can't even define, but when I wake up in the morning, I can feel how heavy they are.
The bright is fighting back, though.
http://artpad.art.com/?kh0k2mi0do0
my soul right now feels like its trying to maintain joy within by protecting from the rainy blues that keep striking it.
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgzomiellls
i was feeling a little trapped today...
OK let me try this again...
http://artpad.art.com/?kgzn1g12drzc
few - my soul is not in the belly of cookie monster
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJ8OjAB_e3g
my soul is feeling a little trapped
that is a jar...
I believe that my mood has changed dramatically since last night. This mood screams advice like "teeth whiteners enhance any smile" and "Purple eye shadow does wonders fro green eyes!"
:)

Bleed until you can hope again...

http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgzj4u1dv3j8
waiting, wishing, moving towards something better.
http://artpad.art.com/?kgzcgljg3e8
definitely at a place where I just don't know what's gonna happen next.
nothing I can do, but wait.
adventureous!
i want to go to the cityy!

This all started with a random scribble.

I cannot defend his actions, I can only describe them. Sympathetically.

My soul is a giant purple monster. :)
http://artpad.art.com/?kgyzs117h078 I want to yell out happiness. Even though I'm annoyed.
I feel fear so I painted Mose Schrute as Fear. (From The Office)

http://artpad.art.com/?kgyr7gdz84k
I got that sooouuuuuuul glow, oh wait that's my hair
my soul at the moment:
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgxh3xn65mo
"Oh my soul, how it quakes and shakes at this time, Oh but how it will shine and glow, in its glory!"
I'm terribly confused and blank. 8D

@ViolentBear very cool - like a movie that starts slow but gets really good :))
http://artpad.art.com/?kgycsa1m8yfk
me in the dark. wandering.
somewhere, always lurking nearby, a light.
What a difference a day makes.
My soul as at 7.22pm, Monday 23rd March 2009:

http://artpad.art.com/?kgyb3pxaafc
the bad is slowly clashing with the good...overpowering it :/
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgya9814kl3g this is mine kinda lonely yea :(
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgy9wlstd50
i'm thinking that i need some balance back.
and i need a love that is so big that i don't know where to look.
in me? in god? in a lover?
http://artpad.art.com/?kgy9c0djluw
Disconnected. Isolated. Prepared.
http://artpad.art.com/?kgy70zm9c5c
this was fun. i feel loved but somewhat small and insignificant at the same time.
something about the colors...
http://artpad.art.com/?kgy3xp1m8doc
There are so very many of these that I want to comment on!!! So many fantastic and amazing representations! I am seriously loving this challenge very, very much. :)
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgy1jct71vw
it's hard to draw with a laptop, but i like mine.
fun!
drawing with a finger and a touch pad
kinda cool and primitive
loved it
http://artpad.art.com/?kgy0z0kkknc
I always feel like I am looking too closely at myself and others are looking at me, judging me. I wonder if my soul is in the right place compared to others.
http://artpad.art.com/?kgy0tupyykc
This is mine - the struggle to remain positive despite my underlying tendency to depression. http://artpad.art.com/?kgxzeby69yw
I actually like this. And I can't draw.
Or, I don't draw how I would like to.
Here's my drawring.

http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgxwlff2vd4

The letters got kinda screwed up..
It's supposed to say "You can breathe, but the air is running out."
:]
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgxuvg5vw5w
The purpose is in the process as much as it is the final product in this one. Also, hand cramp.
feeling a little suffocated today.
http://artpad.art.com/?kgxv47lqg7k
My soul feels like it pours out too much love!
http://artpad.art.com/?kgxr2x89q7k
http://artpad.art.com/?kgxtp0a32og
This is me. I get knocked down. But I get up again. Better each time.
Here you go. My first painting since high school. That is a sad sentence.
http://artpad.art.com/?kgxrrv1eet3o
Cool stuff!! I forgot to click "here"...but the link to my drawing is: http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgxnn9apazk
I'm no artist, but this was fun...I should have added some words. Maybe for my next attempt!
http://artpad.art.com/?kgxm4yb5aj0
@HeatherLee Yes, I'm replying to my own previous one. But things have changed in my soul since this morning and I thought it might be therapeutic for me to see the two pieces side by side. Or nearly. Please forgive the indulgence. :)
http://artpad.art.com/?kgxj44uut1k
@Gigglepeacemaker, Thanks so much! :) Your artwork is very bright & encouraging too! So much talent here. Its been fun viewing all of the artwork!
I wanted to draw myself on a raft but I really can't draw!
http://artpad.art.com/?kgxd7t18kqws
http://artpad.art.com/?kgxak1ytlv0
Its a bit abstract... I wanted to use lots of color on account of the beautiful weather where I live.
I made a picture of Pam's desk from The Office!
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgxa3z1b5zus
@Mugwump @tbahamagal @sokrsofa Thank you all. I loved making that. I actually want to make more. Perhaps I have found my medium.
I had a lot of fun with this =]
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgx7n81crrk8

http://artpad.art.com/?kgx53stzjt8
@brooklyncaryn I loved watching the creation of this piece. Beautiful and sad at the same time.
This is loads of fun. I feel like Spring! with a touch of sadness.
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgx205gcyjo
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgx06cgi1vo Pretty good likeness I think
@pepper_sunlight no sarcasm intended! I was trying to find an excuse for my botch... :)
And one more! Because I was inspired by the abstracts. :)
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgx017hy6nk

@feriscool Oh wow, thank you.
Yours made me crave orange juice :D
http://artpad.art.com/?kgww53ya35s
Really have too much on my mind with too many people pulling at me at once.
http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kgww3w1a2k98
I'm so sick of winter and the cold!
http://artpad.art.com/?kgwvb4th4uk
I made this with a laptop touch pad - pretty challenging!
