This is a sketch I made some days ago by the afternoon. You can see Latke who is an adult bacteria talking ot his son about the truths of life while sitting in the low front of a supermarket's car. I know the scale isn't quite there, but consider it an artistic license.

The feeling that chance, luck, fortune, or better said, opportunity is behind us may strike us more than once. Hopefully not often, but that deep low humming behind our backs can be hear sometimes. Some people try desperately to be ready for the moment opportunity knocks on your door. They stand eager and crouching, with a tighten contained running behaviour, ready to be unleashed and to prove themselves worthy of that opportunity. That is a hard wait. Some people take an even harder path, they turn their backs to external fortune, they start walking on a dark endless room, filled with random windows filled with striking bright light, each one a different color, and they start to stumble, each step a bit deeper, each foot a foot further away from the help of others, but also statiscally closer to find one of those windows. I think there are a good number of those people here in the internet. Those are the persons who create.

Good luck!

I start this one on Painter because it was so long since I tried something there that I thought it was going to be fun, and it was, but kudos to the people at Corel, the thing is too realistic and I'm a mess. I ended it on Photoshop, my usual weapon of choice, but I like the texture it kept from the brush tool in Painter, it must look really nice printed on canvas.
