Another prompt from the 'beyond the playlist' podcast Artist's Round Table, for the prompt "Alien" Feels good to draw my little Soldiers after so long. I'm very pleased with how it came out. I chose them for this not just because they are technically aliens, but for the alternate meaning. It's possible to feel alienated even amongst your own kind, friends, famil, it's possible to feel alone and outside even when surrounded by those who love you most. Sometimes our own perceived failings our flaws, can get the better of us and drag us so far from what should make us happy, and sometimes, regrettably, we give up. And when we do, those imaginary evils are no longer so imaginary, and our inner 'monsters' come out. Then, we really are aliens.
