The Last Leaf: A Modern Story. The Frustration of Our Times.

This is a modern adaptation of the novel The Last Leaf.


Part 1. An Uneasy Atmosphere

The Last Leaf, Frustration

"There aren't many left now..."

A man sat on a park bench, looking at the tree in front of him, thinking. There were only a few leaves on the tree. The atmosphere in the park was bleak. The weather grew colder, and the man's frustration grew. Looking at the few leaves, the man fell into deep thought.


Part 2. Falling Leaves

"No!"

The Last Leaf, Frustration

Just then, a leaf fell. The man's cry echoed throughout the park, but the leaf fell silently, unaffected by the echo.


The man had given up everything. He thought to himself.

The Last Leaf, Frustration

'If everything disappears, will I disappear too?'


The man felt a deep sense of frustration.


Part 3. What Frustrates Us in This Age

The Last Leaf, Frustration

The man took his bankbook out of his pocket and opened it.


"I have $120 left... How many days will I last on this?..."

Money is essential for living in this day and age. The man is deeply frustrated by the dwindling amount.

The Last Leaf, Frustration

"If only someone would give me money, I could maintain my hope in life..."

Lively concert stage

Image
  I drew a lively concert stage using pixel art. First, I drew a simple stage. Next, I drew the performers. Two are dancing, and two more are in the background, livening up the atmosphere. Speakers were placed on the left and right sides of the stage.  Since the audience was dark and hard to see, I drew only their shapes in black. I applied a gradient to make the stage bright and the audience dark. Finally, I simply drew the lights and confetti. Lively concert stage

How to Draw a Log Easily with Pixel Art

Image
I drew a simple log in pixel art. Use it as a reference when you draw logs. I drew this on a 32-pixel square canvas. First, I drew the cross-section of the log. I drew it as a circle with a diameter of 13 pixels.  Copy half of the circle and move it upwards, then draw a vertical line to make the length of the log.  I painted the cross-section of the log brown. I then drew the rings, an important characteristic of the tree, in light brown. I drew them as circles with a diameter of 7 pixels.    I painted the trunk section a slightly lighter color than the cross-section, and drew straight lines in a lighter brown. I also raised half of the cross-section by 2 pixels, making the cross-section an ellipse.  I put a stain in the log trunk.  I put dots in the middle of the light brown straight lines.   I made spots by dotting the logs in random locations with brown and light brown colors.  Assuming the sunlight is coming from the left, a...

Drawing a Vending Machine in Isometric Pixel Art. Basic Isometric Practice.

Image
 I drew a vending machine using isometric pixel art. It's a practice exercise for isometric basics.  To draw isometric pixel art, keep the following in mind: When drawing lines that are vertical or parallel to the horizon, draw them two spaces wide and one space high. First, draw the ground. Draw the two lines of a square (two spaces wide and one space high).  Copy the two lines and move them to create the height of the ground.  Copy the two lines again. Flip it horizontally and then vertically, then move it to draw the remaining two lines of the rectangle. Draw a square on the bottom of the vending machine in the same way.    Copy and move the rectangle, then draw vertical lines to create height. Color it simply with three levels of shading.  Draw the windshield of the vending machine. Just like the floor, draw it 2 squares wide and 1 square high.  The space inside the windshield is also drawn 2 squares wide a...
