Artist's Comments

From the Musical Wicked, but also a small reference from the book (: I wanted the background to show have much they've influenced each other. I really loved this song when I graduated from high school, saying goodbye to my classmates I've been with since I was 6. So whenever I hear this song, I will always be reminded of my graduated classmates XD

Glinda
I've heard it said
that people come into our lives for a reason
bringing something we must learn
and we are led
to those who help us most to grow
if we let them
and we help them in return
well, i don't know if i believe that's true
but i know i'm who i am today
because i knew you...

like a comet pulled from orbit
as it passes a sun
like a stream that meets a boulder
halfway through the wood
who can say if i've been changed for the better?
but because i knew you
i have been changed for good …

Elphaba
it well may be
that we will never meet again
in this lifetime
so let me say before we part
so much of me
is made of what i learned from you
you'll be with me
like a handprint on my heart
and now whatever way our stories end
i know you have re-written mine
by being my friend...

like a ship blown from its mooring
by a wind off the sea
like a seed dropped by a skybird
in a distant wood
who can say if i've been changed for the better?
but because i knew you...

Glinda
because i knew you...

Both
because i knew you
i have been changed for good...

Elphaba
and just to clear the air
i ask forgiveness
for the things i've done you blame me for

Glinda
but then, i guess we know
there's blame to share

Both
and none of it seems to matter anymore

Glinda // Elphaba

like a comet pulled from //like a ship blown off its mooring
orbit/as it passes a sun //by a wind off the sea
like a stream that meets a boulder //like a seed dropped by a
half-way through the wood //bird in the wood

Both
who can say if i've been changed for the better?
i do believe i have been changed for the better

Glinda
and because i knew you...

Elphaba
because i knew you...

Both
because i knew you...
i have been changed for good.

Me Mum has the book.
I never really got past the first coupla chapters, but Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister was pretty good.

Beautiful, both the song and the way you illustrated it. Faving.

This is the best kind of person to talk to: someone who is willing to take an honest look at the evidence. Being willing is essential. Evidence cannot convince the unwilling.

The drawing, the coloring... even just their expressions are wonderful! Beautiful picture!

Wow, that is totally beautiful. I love it. I have yet to see Wicked or read the book (though it is definitely on my list of things to do before I get too old to care) but I have been a die hard Wizard of Oz fan since I was a baby, so this totally caught my attention. It's so gorgeous and I just love their positioning next to each other! It is so well drawn! Wonderful job! :love:
