When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.

--[[About the Series]]--
Alright, I decided to do series of season "hobos" becuase everybody does pictures of seasonal faeries and I decided to do hobos instead becuase it seemed like an amusing twist on the same-old-same-old. Now what's a hobo? For those of you are looking for this pic to match a specific definition...well you may not find one ^.^ My definition of hobo is hopefully a little bit more light-hearted. MY hobo is a disheveled gentleman, with patches, stitches and a monocle (most likely a hat, only it's not apparent in this picture) and maybe I'll stick birds in all of them too... --[[Autumn]]-- Autmn is the season I was trying to represent here, Thanksgiving and Halloween are obviously the two holidays (atleast in the U.S.) that define the autumn season but I tried my best to steer away from fashioning the pictures after a specific holiday and more of the season itself. I made our hobo here look like a scarecrow, I wanted to put a straw hat on him put I did not think it would fit well with the rest of the composition, so instead I gave him patches, some straw sticking out, and a scythe (I suppose the crow suggests the same theme as well...) And the glowing orb in the middle there is supposed to be the harvest moon (i'm not sure if it's the same as the "hunting moon" but it's the moon when it appears to be blood red, and MUCH larger than normal.)

If you light a man a fire, you will keep him warm for a while. If you SET a man afire, you will keep him warm for the rest of his life.
All of his patches, the hay-bundle-wings and all of the paper flowers are just...extraordinary!
No criticism, I could bring myself that low, but instead a question:
What's a Hobo???

And this is actually increasing the extreme amount of inspiration I have right now!
