Theme 6: I Am Finally Free

Theme 6: Break Away.

This has several hidden meanings. I drew it as a response to having just quit my job, due to the fact that working there has become unbearable.

While it may have not been the best decision, they pushed me to far, and I broke... The act caused many tears and distress at first...but...I have now come to accept and even almost welcome it. That job had been standing in my way of ever finding a new job and moving on, and I felt trapped within it.

All that is changed now. I'm FREE.

I figured I'd draw Reni in a similar situation...possibly from a future(that never actually happened) of My Great Escape RP. She has escaped the slave camp in the background (along with burning it to the ground =P) and is throwing away the shackles...wearing a confident expression of satisfaction, comfortable in the knowledge that she's free to make a new start.

Edit: I may eventually re-draw this. It's not really up to standard with my other "100 Themes" pics (or my other art in general), and the proportions are all wrong. This is what happens when I try to draw something fast. *sigh*

Looks pretty good. =) Yeah, even without knowing anything about this character or this situation, I would've inferred there was symbolism here.

The background looks like it was thrown together in a few minutes. Was this to draw attention to Reni instead?

Something I notice: it looks like you drew Reni's torso a tad too wide for her arms and head.
