Tristesse

This year I started leaving some parts of myself in characters I create, and Tristesse has a lot of me, a being living between fantasy and reality, alone in an empty space, a space full of thoughts, but lonely. Sometimes Tristesse can't see the stars and only sees darkness, it's a journey of discovery, Tristesse can very well stand still and get carried away in this emptiness, or he can point to a direction and see if there's something there, even though it doesn't look like it have something. Being an angel is irrelevant, your wings are irrelevant, your musical instrument is irrelevant because he can't take off your helmet to play it, sometimes things just don't make sense, but they are what they are, and will continue to exist . When I started the concept of this character a few months ago I wanted to convey this sad part of me, melancholy, but still colorful, it's just a face with many sides. Many other things represent many things, but the feeling is basically this. I'm not one for explanations, but maybe this drawing can find other people who are on the same journey, sometimes lost, but sometimes not, just imagining what music sounds like instead of hearing the emptiness. Hope you like it :)
