Heya guys. I started workinh on this piece about a week after my dad passed. I tried my best to be distracted from it, but between a job interview & funeral preparations, it was hard to even think about art really. Then when I was finally able to have some down time, I got stuck for almost 2 weeks on trying to remember the technique I used last time for the mid-transformation effect. I only just finally remembered it today and was at last able to make something that I'm happy with.
Anyways, I'll be coming back into the swing of things slowly but surely. I'm not fully healed or done grieving, but I'll be okay. Life moves on and I know my dad would want me to do the same, no matter how much I miss him. Some day I hope to take my art skills to the next level and be able to make some level of a tribute to him. I wouldn't be the person or artist I am without him. Let's hope that I reach that point some day.
Also, be sure to tell me which version of each picture you like the best! I want to know if the added effects made the pictures better or worse!

There is no set period on how long to grieve and if you working on your art helps that's good. But don't throw yourself back into the swing of things if you're not fully ready; or if you need to take another break that's fine too. Take it one step at a time. And if you need to vent about anything - you know the drill you got people that are willing to listen.
