Going home

Title can't be empty.

Going home, going home,
returning to what's left behind.
Going home called glorious victor,
returning as a broken man.
Going home, going home,
returning home at last.

wow love it can really tell by the expression he is a broken man

Thank you, I'm glad to hear it's so obvious. :)

what an awesome picture really amazing

Thank you. :)

Damn, that has GOT to hurt. You really captured that Lost the battle but Won the war feeling. Well done. It's a fav. for sure.

I'm sure it does.
Thank you. :)

This is beautiful. I love it. +fav

Thanks. :)

You're welcome

Man it is surprised he is not dead from all those arrows lodged in his back, but I do say by his expression he is a broken man indeed weary and wounded, very nice work and nice poem also. :)

Thank you very much. :) Well, he already is half dead ... and if he survives is up to the viewer, I guess.

Yeah I guess it is, but still a beautiful all the same no matter the outcome.

This is really moving.
I think everyone returning from Afghanistan or Iraq could really feel this pic, too.

Thank you.
And maybe ... though those people still have a home to return to ... for the warrior of this piece ... who knows?

Very beautiful as always.

Thank you very much, as always. ;)

wow thats not a arrow to the knee, its an arrow in the back :p

good work!

Indeed, though I have to admit I had to look up that catchphrase first.
And thank you. :)

This is some fantastic work. :) I love it.

Thank you very much. :]

"Going home with a bit of back pain. Might want to get that looked at..."

Yeah, could be something serious. ;)

Yes!! I like art that tells a story and this one definetly tells he is "going home" after some type of war or battle :)

Art that tells a story can be so much stronger than words. So, yeah. :)

Well I don't know if broken is the right word for him, but maybe I;m just in the mood to persevere? Anyways, amazing work!! Reminds me of the style from a bedtime storybook <3

Well, war can change people completely, but that's just my opinion. :)
And thank you very much! But I guess the stories in that book aren't as heavy as this piece ... :')

Well, emotionally, I guess the storybooks arent on the same level, unless thats the way you connected with the story. I really connected with the poem and artwork as one, so that brought it to a new level, hence my fave of the piece :)

I see, thank you for explaining it to me. :) I am really glad you connected the poem and the artwork as one, it's much appreciated.

Looks like somebody got the shaft.

Indeed ...

"Must have been nothing."

Yeah, just a little itching on the back. :P

oh wow, very beautiful artwork. such a tragic scene. gets full marks from me ^_^

Thank you very much. :}

Love the style and coloring. Spot on. Picture says so much. Fantastic work!

Thank you. :)

you are really amazing

Thank you so much! :)

For some reason, reminds me of the part in LotR where Boromir gets shot by Lurtz... or well, if he'd have stayed alive. Fantastic work!

Hm ... now that you mention it ... indeed! :) (And now I feel like watching LotR at work ...) Thank you!
