What more lies out there? What will I uncover?

------- A Little Big Update --------

Going to post secondary to study art has been on my mind since grade 12 but I never had the courage to carry through with it. I didn't entertain the option mostly because I heard it was hard to get into the school here in addition to self doubt and career worries. But I finally bit the bullet and applied back in September in hopes I could get in and make it work.

I had originally painted this to use in my portfolio, but replaced the pony with a person. (Art schools don't really like fan art, which is understandable.) But I held off posting it in case they stumble across my art page. Also had to delete a lot of my non-pony art too which is unfortunate. :/ 

I'm finally posting this now because I received results from the school regarding my application. I made it in!!!

I know everyone will have their own interpretation of this piece, (which you are entitled to) but for myself, it is a work full of mystery and questions. A perfect implication of the thoughts and emotions I've been going through in regards to where I want to take my art. What is next for me? What more is out there? Where will I go? Who will I meet? What risks will I take? Will I make it? But all these thoughts boil down to one thing. I have to try. If I never try, how will I know? So that is what I'll do! I'll try! 

Now, before I wrap up this behemoth wall of text, I just want to thank each one of you who've been so gracious towards me with the compliments, feedback, and for just supporting me. It's reassuring to me to know you guys truly enjoy my work and that is something I can never hope to repay. And to my friends, thank you for taking pride in my successes, and comforting me through the failures. Would never have thought I'd ever be doing art if not for all of you! Thank you!
