Wander and Sylvia

These are just fan arts of two characters from Wander Over Yonder. These characters belong to Craig McCracken, the man behind The PowerPuff Girl and Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends. On the circle one, I painted Wander and Sylvia with poster paint and I colored the background with a purple colored pencil and white and pink watercolor. I know that the watercolor will smudge to the other page of my sketchbook because I used the chalky one and so does the colored pencil, so I decide to cover the surface with glue that dries clear and it makes it glossy and doesn’t smudge anymore. The other one is all painted with poster paint.

Wander and Sylvia are inseperable best friends. Wander is the main protagonist of the show and Sylvia is the deuteragonist. Their relationship is so wonderful and precious that I could feel that they are more than best friends. You don’t have to agree with everything I said especially if you don’t like the pairing because this is just what I feel. In the series, it is shown that Wander and Sylvia have an excellent and special chemistry and I love it. But they weren’t romantic, only platonic.

Wander is an intergalactic space traveler and a do-gooder. He was so funny, friendly and kindhearted. He always help those who are in need and do good. He sees the good in everyone even if that person is bad. He is a kind of guy you would like to befriend with. Sylvia is a zbornak, who is Wander’s traveling companion and best friend. She is tough, brave and intimidating,but also caring and protive. She could make a good big sister. Wander and Sylvia have a mysterious relationship because there might be something hiding behind their relationship and how it made us question if they are actually couples. But it was never answered in the show. They might be lovers that are hiding the romance between them or maybe they see each other as just friends but are actually lovers. I may have found some hints that their relationship can be romantic: the multiple hugs they give each other, they pretended to be parents, they share a glass of drink with two straws and a planet, that has a crush on Wander, was jealous of Sylvia. The episode, with the jealous planet, might the episode that really tries to hint that they are romantic. It was the first episode where Wander and Sylvia says “I love you” to each other and it shows Wander not wanting to fall in love with another girl, but rather wants to be with Sylvia. Wander did say to Sylvia that he can imagine a lot things but he can’t imagine a better friend than her, which means to me that she could be the only one he wants in his life forever. None of them has any love interests throughout the show. It might mean that the two of them should be partners. The story of how they met is interesting. Sylvia used to be a bad person and a dangerous bounty hunter, but Wander’s influence changes her to a goodhearted person. Since the show was cancelled we never get to see more of their past lives.

Again, you don’t have to agree with everthing I said. It is just what I feel.

Old Drawings

I decided to look back to my old drawings. The first picture shows a drawing of a youtuber named Animat from his youtube channel ElectricDrangon505 and Wander from Wander Over Yonder. I make this kind of crossover because Animat have a series in his channel called “What’s in the Box?” where he reads letter and opens packcages and there is an episode in WOY, “The Box”, where there is this box that Wander wasn’t suppose to open, but he was curious of what was inside and he keep saying “What’s in the box?” The connection is that they say “What’s in the box?”

That second picture was taken back on March 9, 2017. I remember when I was in school, when the school year is almost over that all we have was free time and no classes, bringing my colored pencil and sketchbooks. I was in the school library with three of my friends, who are borrowing my colored pencils so that they color their coloring book, I was doing my drawings and then some kids, who are all girls, saw my drawings of the WOY characters and a sketch of RJ and Verne from Over the Hegde, so they gathered around me. I show them my drawings including the “What in the Box?” and they were impressed and they like my drawing. One girl, named Andrea, who I made friends with much more than the others, said that she loves the What’s in the Box?” I don’t think they know Animat, but they do recognize Wander and I ask them about WOY. Some of the kids grab their papers and pencil to draw along with me and I let them use my colored pencil to color their work. The kids were very nice, smart and they are even responsible because they know how to take care of my colored pencil. I hope they are doing fine. My friends also did get along the kids.

Wander Over Yonder Fan Art

This is my Wander Over Yonder fan art. It is in my sketchbook and painted with acrylic paint. I’m posting this and I going to further tell the story behind this fan art.

WOY is an animated series created by Craig McCracken. It’s about two intergalactic travellers, who help people to have fun and live free. I really love the show and it became my favorite because it was charming and funny. It’s like a show that I always wanted to watch and the main protagonist, Wander, is really funny, a character that I like to be the protagonist, and the deuteragonist, Sylvia, was a tough female character and that is something I like. As an artist, I love the animation because it’s colorful and a beautiful work of art. When I watched more episodes, something changed my life forever. The show was more about helping others and doing good and it inspires me to do so. It shows the true meaning of helping. When I help someone, it feels good. I become a better person. If you help others and do good, I know you will be rewarded like the people will help you back.

This is my favorite WOY fan art that I have ever made. This is a picture of a girl that looks like me, but it could be anyone, with her cat witnessing Wander and Sylvia. I may want to allow the fans to make their own version of this like changing the appearance of the girl to make her look like them and also change the cat to whatever their pet was. I share this on twitter, but I don’t know if someone make their own version. But I don’t want anyone turning my idea into theirs. I came up with this picture after the show was cancelled. I was sad and angry that it was cancelled because the show had become a part of my life. Think of the good things the show have done to me and how it helped a lot people. I made this fan art to express how I love it and how much I miss it. I write a short poem for this.

Is it the sun, the moon or a star?
I witness something that came across it
I know no one will believe me expect my cat
But what I’m seeing is just wonderful
