Score: 10
"I feel this a vastly underated piece"
date: October 26, 2008
It is vastly underated as the review scores for this are somewhat unforgiving. Not as an admirer for showcase art as such, but as one in touch with the artistic side of life, appreciating all the is strange and beatiful, you understand why I reguarly visit Newgrounds.
To me people who derive from this in ratings sheerly because it doesn't fill their funny gauge high enough, are certainly missing the point of this flash. I see that this flash is relaxing, charming, and perfect as a bit of light entertainment to set the tone for bed, which is here I'm heading in a minute. It is a flash of peace, and you need to be at peace, in an eased frame of mind to enjoy what is on show here; clearly many Newgrounds users are hopping from flash to flash full of action and/or humor, and are simply bemused by what is on show here. A myriad showcase of artisitc form via flash then, is missed on such people on Newgrounds clearly, and if they are to rate you on this flash they must do so on the right terms, to which the charm of this flash should be adressed.
To elaborate past the simple charm, and soothing serentiy of this flash, I must bid that the aspect of which most grabbed me was the clinical action in which this artist produced his art, on the spot. One thing about any true artist is that he produces persevering peices of art, from long staunts of energy singing time, rather than mass produces a variety of art in audacious attempts to win over the passing art community and/or public. This to me is irony, for the poor man is acting parallel to the way in which an artist should, and as such the reason for his failure to be noticed becomes all too real, his art is not art for art's sake. The way in which the modern world is vicing down on free time and ventures of discovery for mass productions is no better symoblised than the struggle we see this budding artist go through here, so thank you for this true and poigant representation of that; while also maintaining the stlye and flow of a positive flash to cause me to rest at my sit for long enough to take this all in. A true gem of a flash, and unlike others, rate this I do.
5/5 10/10, this really is that unique as an NG piece and deserves it.
