Ichy and Me

Description

Before anybody asks, this is an old Photoshop peice I did back in the early 2000s when I was still a teenager. So I know it looks pretty crappy now. But what can I say? Back in those days I didn't have all the time in the world to dedicate myself to my art. And unfortunately, that hasn't changed even now. But anyway, as you can tell by the drawing quality and the line quality, this pic is at least a few years old now. And I know that Ichy looks a bit out of proportion. But that's because I was trying to get the sort of angle in which it looks like the viewer is seeing things from down below as another character looks down at him. And as you can see, Ichy is sort of looking down at me as I look over my shoulder to see him in back of me.

This drawing I did here is based on a dream I had long ago back in the early 90s when the cartoon "Dinosaucers" was on reruns. In this particular dream, I was a grown up exploring the ocean in a small motor boat. I was just enjoying the view during the bright sunny day as I saw the birds soaring through the blue sky making their usual calling noises. But when I turned on the motor to sail back to shore, the boat suddenly went out of control, and I ended up crashing. But when I woke up (still in the dream) I found myself in Ichy's arms as he was carrying me back to shore.

Ichy gently placed me on my back and asked me if I was okay. I responded to him by saying I'm okay. But then I asked what he was doing at the beach. He told me that he was exploring the ocean until he saw me unconsious and sinking down into the ocean. I asked him why he saved me. And he replied by saying "Anybody's life is worth saving." But then I said "I don't know about that. I'm not so sure about anything." He placed one of his flippers on my shoulder and responded by saying "Keep your head up, kid. You must cherrish what you still have. Life is very precious, and we all must do what we can to enjoy the life that's ahead of us".

I know it's rather wierd to recieve advice from a dream that I had long ago. But for some odd reason, what Ichy said in my dream made sense to me. Normally, in real life, you recieve advice from either close friends, or family. But for me, I seem to recieve advice from just about everywhere. Call me a freak, but for as odd as it may seem, sometimes even dreams can affect the way we view life. And this particular dream I had of Ichy really impacted my life in such ways.
