Stand Tall

Because this needed to be done, too =3 I was going to submit it yesterday... but I figured I might as well post it up with all the birthday gifts X3 Three pieces of art from me in one day? You lucky ducks, you.

This actually seems like a better present than the other one

For *prettyprincesslady54 - coz it's high time I did some fanart for you! Ti's Kaera, standing tall and proud. Wh00t! This is actually because you were feeling down a few days ago. Let's hope this cheers you up, hun.

I quite like the pose Kaera is in, even though I drew her a bit too barrel-chested

And wow - uber-thin lines X3

And look! Puffy clouds! Huzzah!

Yeah, it's very simple And comes complete with a lens flare! I would've kept it out, but it looks incomplete without it

I drew this while listening to You Gotta Be, by Des'ree and put the first verse and the chorus is in the image. I would put the whole song in, but it's too big So I'll put it here...


Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead, release your fears
Stand up and be counted. Don't be
ashamed to cry.

You gotta be...

You gotta be bad
You gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard
You gotta be tough
You gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool
You gotta be calm
You gotta stick together
All I know, all I know love will save the day

Herald what your mother said
Read the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own
sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view. My, oh, my
Hey hey hey

You gotta be bad
You gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard
You gotta be tough
You gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool
You gotta be calm
You gotta stick together
All I know, all I know love will save the day

Time asks no questions
It goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the
pace
The world keeps on spinning
Can't stop it if you try to
The best part is danger staring you in the face
Oh oh oh

Remember, listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead, release your fears
Stand up and be counted. Don't be
ashamed to cry.

You gotta be...

You gotta be bad
You gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard
You gotta be tough
You gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool
You gotta be calm
You gotta stick together
All I know, all I know love will save the day
