The Forbidden Love Story By Gabriel Picolo
371Kviews
“Inspired by Icarus, who dared to fly too near the sun on wings of feathers and wax. If he was in love with the sun, then this might as well be a story of forbidden love.” This is how the author himself explains the illustrated story of Icarus and the Sun.
Gabriel Picolo from Brazil is the artist behind this beautiful yet heartbreaking story about love, fire, forbidden fruits, and loss. He is a traditional and digital illustrator who started gaining traction in 2014 when his 365 days project of drawing every day gained some loyal fans.
“For my drawings, I take inspiration from Studio Ghibli, Disney, video games among other stuff,” the artist wrote on his Patreon. “I love to draw something that is relatable to other people and me as well.”
The illustrated love story of Icarus and the Sun is inspired by a famous myth called Daedalus and Icarus about a man who died by flying too close to the burning sun with his wings, made from feathers and wax. Gabriel’s greatest love story is beautiful, unique and heartbreaking all at the same time.

Is that... is that really the last panel??
Why start over, pick up where you left off
because sometimes you're not the same person as you were where you left off, people constantly change without anyone really noticing until they look back between the past and the present.
Omg ikr that was so beautiful up until that point
Nope it's just where the artist is up to in the story. Illustrating a full story takes years. It's an unfinished work.
Actually Picolo announced on his instagram that this story is now complete.
"Solar bodies describe yourself like male author would" Sun: She's fit as f**K, with the perfect boobs, hips and bum does not concern herself with complex thoughts.....
hahahaha
