[mrefiti]

[theMONOCLEDfalcon]

bro mary just have to say i love your drawing style!!!! when did you take a major intrest in drawing???

[Sarafan955]

nc symmetry

[shikumaru15]

Ever thought of making a calander line of your artwork? Please?

[esp123777]

Im in impressed

[sebi95meier]

Is it possible to get your paintings as wallpapers? because i think most of them would make wonderful desktop backgrounds. I enjoy your great work!

[DocterWolf117]

nice...

[SaintsSister47]

draw nicepeter, epicloyd, and KassemG as YOU see them. not dressed up for a rap battle, as your friends.

[JohnnyAwesome911]

HOW DO I BECOME AS GOOD AS YOU?!?!?

[Joseabrego11]

i remmember this from haunting in conneticut :D

[SirFireman57]

Really creepy that i cant pause this video. I tried multiple times and it just kept going.

[AnimeLoverJuan]

Ohhhh I get it!

One dark night is refering to the blind guy because he can't see, so its always night for him.

In the middle of the day is refering to the Policeman who can see.

The swords are refering to the policeman because he SAW the boys playing with swords.

And the bullets are refering to the SOUNDS that they make, but they werent bullets, it was the clanking of the swords, the deaf guy heard and he thought it was bullets.

And for the 2 dead boys..Well..I'm stumped there XD

[NinjaPiratFish]

@AnimeLoverJuan

It contradicts itself, the blind man "saw", the deaf police man "heard, they shoot each other with swords, its night at the middle of the day, they stood back to back to face one another..

[MooshCow]

@AnimeLoverJuan on the 2 Dead Boys its Impossible because there already dead and what is a blind man doing at a cemetery?

[aysharpietwintip13]

@MooshCow oh wow, thank u 4 that

[11nitemare]

@AnimeLoverJuan i think the dead boys thing is that they killed each other

[maxgrewe]

blind people can't see, hello? This makes no sense...

[chopopcherubii]

@maxgrewe that's kinda the point...

[maxgrewe]

@chopopcherubii I to the R to the O to the N to the Y baby

[horrormasters]

i want one of your works of art so badly

[XxNobblesxX]

have you ever considered creating a graphic novel?

[Safetyification]

DOES WANT!

[Arsenic335]

This is by far the best Halloween story of all time. And now this is one of the best drawings of all time!

[kurbypinky]

SO beautiful :D

[dragoncreeper98]

There's also another version where the opening line is:

One fine day in the middle of the night,

2 dead boys got up to fight.

That's pretty much the only difference.

Either way, the art is AMAZING.

[Squallzy13]

brilliant

[LockableLouise]

Why the fuck would they let a deaf police man on the force? XD

[bubblemuffinxp]

@LockableLouise they cant be discriminatin', ya hurd?

[andrandomstuff]

Guys EVERY LINE contradicts each other... on purpose.

Turned back to back to face eachother.... dark night in the middle of the night... deaf policeman heard the noise.... blind man saw it all... come on now.

[jamiluhh]

omg, i've always loved this story, my brother and law always tells it on halloween when we get together to tell ghost stories. im never tired of hearing it. :3

[kibouguthier42]

i love this one so much, its beautiful

[Nightvampirefear]

if they shot each other who had the gun?

[harrysonofbob]

ive always loved this poem, great drawing

[500hpb20]

*My favorite *

[kkcleanex]

@the people who are commenting about her saying "one dark night in the middle of the day",

i guess you missed when she said a "blind man saw it all" and a "deaf policeman heard the noise". that was the point of the poem -.-

[Nightvampirefear]

@kkcleanex well each line is contradicting each other you have to figure out what they mean for it all takes place on halloween a graveyard full of the dead don't you think those men weren't dead?

[jellosock64]

One dark night. In the middle if the day. SMH ur high

[AlyJ089]

i love this <3

[spizzle99]

One dark night in the middle of the day. Mhm

[kaisblackops]

This is based on the poem 'Ladles and Jellyspoons, I come here tonight to tell you something I know nothing about. For next Tuesday, which is Good Friday...' etc.

[princesscutiepie422]

my mom told me this when I was little if she thought I was lieing to her, after a while I memorized it and said it with her! it didn't work after that........

[JuMoAu]

To just sit and watch you create this, or anything else would be awesome.

[PrinceOfSaloneia]

One dark night. In the middle of the day.

[Soulhunter161]

MIND = BLOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jakeybear01]

new one should be a giant mutated teddy bear taking a pirate ship down into the ocean

[Poetryofthedamned]

I love this, so creative and interesting.

[OriginalTripleB]

one dark night...in the middle of the day...

hmmm

[fluffystuffies]

can u draw a rabbit version of alice (the one from the zombie movies) saving a whole bunch of puppies being eaten by zombies PLEEEEEEAAAS 83

[mymidnightface]

How was it one dark night then the middle of the day?

[Poetryofthedamned]

@mymidnightface If you listen to all of the poem you will find each line is intentionally contradicting.

[pchen21]

A deaf policeman heard something and a blind man saw everything???

[MsDaydreamer14]

Heehee I remember this poem, when I first heard it I was so confused but I love what you did with the drawing :) Specially splattering the paint for the blood effect, awesome. :3

[TheAileyN]

You should draw Dogs taking their Humans out for a walk.

[MissMisty111]

"One dark night. In the middle of the day"

Lol xD

[BloodFromTheThorn]

The version I knew was a little different: One fine day in the middle of the night, two dead men got up to fight, back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other. A paralyzed donkey passing by, kicked a blind man in the eye, pushed them through a nine inch wall, into a dry ditch and drowned them all.

[babycilla86]

Girl I Loved This!! That's One Of My Favorite Poems Since I Was Young And The Drawing Is Amazing!! =))

[themasterofvlogging]

if the police man is deaf than how did it hear the noise and if the man is blind how did he see it all?

[oogallecta]

@themasterofvlogging precisely.

[kcoots675]

I kinda liked it better in the yellowish looking paper...it looked....spookier!

[ComplicatedRissa]

I have a story just like this.

One bright night, two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, drew there swords and shot each other. A deaf policeman heard the noise, came and shot the two dead boys. If you dont believe my lie is true, ask the blind man, he saw it all too.

[TheCragnog]

3 people are jelous

[slantedface]

wait a second one dark night, in the middle of the day... whats wrong with that?

[115386acer]

u should draw a baby attacking new york :D

[gleona1]

@115386acer i agree

[TizimONizzle15]

GOD DAMN ROMNEY I DONT GIVE A FUCK IM TO YOUNG TO VOTE GOD DAMN

[hellofastination]

damn sick picture teach me how to draw like that <33

[TizimONizzle15]

you forgot about the deaf and blind old policeman who heard and saw all gosh

[xXxSgtPepperxXx]

the one i grew up with went: early in the morning in the middle of the night two dead boys got up to fight back to back they faced each other drew their swords and shot each other the deaf policeman heard the noise and came to kill the two dead boys if you dont believe this story is true ask the blind man he saw it too.... how does the original go?

[ChelSings4U]

That's a very old poem, and this is the clean version... it's really: Early one morning, late one night, two dead boys sat up to fight, back to back they faced one another drew out their swords and shot each other. Two deaf police men heard the noise and came to kill those two dead boys. If you think this tale is tall, just ask the blind man, he saw it all.

[AguyWhoLikesTheTube]

One of your best! Keep up the awesome work!

[thedectivecookie]

Hey! That poem is on "The Haunting in Connecticut"! I love that movie!!!!!

[ariedevine]

[Reavera123]

My brain exploded from the Epicness.

[jedinson24199]

[AmyOliLeo]

I seriously can't explain how awesome I think this drawing is. Tis drenched in epic-sauce.

[CaptOmg]

One dark night In the middle of the day Two dead boys Got up to play They stood back to back To face one another Drew their swords And shot each other A deaf policeman heard the noise And ran to save the two dead boys If you believe this tale is tall Just ask the blind man Who saw it all

[8964373]

OH WOW THAT'S COOL.

[darris321]

I heard it thus:

one bright day in the middle of the night

two dead boys got up to fight.

back to back, they faced each other

drew their swords and shot one another

a deaf policeman heard the noise

came over and killed those two dead boys

this lie, I swear, is entirely true.

just ask the blind man. He saw it too.

[animaluver456]

[animaluver456]

[TilSchweigersUndies]

[JDWingato]

You're artwork is amazing, you have enjoyable songs in every video, and the length of your videos is perfect. Thank you for sharing your passion with us!

[TheEvilGoat456]

[JDempsey23]

PANDA! Draw a panda please!

[Ridacation]

This is what you call art and not the shit that looks like a child made it.

[HomicidalTeaBreak]

Ladies and gentlemen, Hobos and tramps, Cross side mosquitos and bull legged ants, pull up a chair and sit on the floor, I'll tell you a story I've never heard before about one bright day in the middle of night, two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other, A deaf police man heard the noise, Came to kill the two dead boys and if you don't believe this lie is true, Ask the blind man, He saw it too...

That's how I heard it ^^

[Ernestoawesome]

how could a deaf police man hear gun shots if he can hear

[HomicidalTeaBreak]

@Ernestoawesome That's the point, it's meant to sound like nonsense :D

[matthiasrox]

OMG! I heard this poem once in the third grade! IT was my favorite poem (still is), and now I like it even more!

[ChristianTheGamer]

recorded with a toaster

[TheIphoneGuy1985]

I heard the same story a different way... :/

[xFavOx]

I love you so much right now. I heard this poem years ago in the 4th grade and I couldn't remember how it went. Thank you so much for being awesome.

[CrazzyLoveLy]

itd cool;oo

[PrivateRyker123]

Why would a deaf policeman be allowed on the force?

[pyro1gone1crazy]

@PrivateRyker123 best shot

[gr4ndhustle]

@PrivateRyker123 because the town of crippledville said so..

[PrivateRyker123]

@gr4ndhustle

0.o

[DRAMAdramabeats20oh4]

@PrivateRyker123 that's not the point

[PrivateRyker123]

@DRAMAdramabeats20oh4

It's called making a joke. You should try it sometime.

[dablardo]

[Motazaliad]

this music is fantastic

[realKitkatnation]

wow. skillz. so jealous. <3

[vaderlikespie]

Amazing! This video is amazing

[metalicafan7]

this poem made my head hurt -.-

[entercoolname]

Dunkel war's, der Mond schien helle,

als ein Wagen blitzeschnelle,

langsam um die Ecke fuhr.

Drinnen saßen stehend Leute,

stumm in ein Gespräch vertieft,

als ein totgeschoss'ner Hase

auf dem Rasen Schlittschuh lief.

This is a a version of a German poem that doesn't make sense, either.

My mum used to tell me this. I love things like that :)

[nightmareman1978]

[Mirro18]

This was the best so far O_O really great work. The poet and the painting

[DynamicJDUB99]

Oooooorrr....

One bright day in the middle of the night to dead boys got up to fight

Back to back they faced eachother drew their swords and shot

The deaf policeman heard the noise and ran to save the two dead boys

If you dont believe this story's true ask the blind man he saw it too....

Same thing different rhyme

[SlightlyLostPixie]

Amazing!

[HunterEli602]

Ooooh!!!!!  The irony!!!!

[MissNugget201]

They drew their swords and shot each other?

[WalkTheFilmstrip]

@MissNugget201 That irony is carried throughout the entire poem.

"They stood back-to-back to face one another..."

"A deaf policeman heard the noise..."

"...Just ask the blind man - he saw it all."

:)

[flika182]

just one word: Amazing!

[Maranda22]

This is my favorite one so far! Fantastic!

[MrCool87867]

I freaking loved it

[Undefiled29]

I love the "one dark night in the middle of the day" line, made me crack up

[MrKolliop]

I sat in my room, staring at the wall

When a face looked back, and asked If I called

Stricken by surprise, I said sorry wrong house

For the face was that of a humanoid mouse

So then I SCREAMED, and I SHOUTED until i cried

Then my dad entered my room, the face asked why'd I lie... xD

[TheGTAHighRoller]

A hero might save us but we must weep

If this hero has an enemy that there is no way to defeat.

Evil comes every day and never retreats at night

But we must prepare for our world's final fight.

So come with me brethren and draw your final breath

As the warriors of God breach the Doors of Death.

[ImLunchHour]

@TheGTAHighRoller Sounds like something from the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan

[TheGTAHighRoller]

@ImLunchHour What is Heroes of Olympus? I just came up with that though it did take me about 5 minutes. I wanna become a poet! Did you like it?

[ImLunchHour]

@TheGTAHighRoller Its a series of books made by Rick Riordan ( he made the Percy Jackson series). The great prophecy he writes is that 7 heroes must bind together close the Doors of Death and put the goddess of the Earth back to sleep. But they need to have Greek and Roman Demigods ( children of Gods) band together ( in your poem i am referring to the "hero" u speak of) and the evil that comes is the Goddess of the Earth (who is bad) lol its hard to explain thefirst book is called The Lost Hero

[TheGTAHighRoller]

@ImLunchHour Woah wait you mean the Gaia is evil? (i know my greek mythology :) )

[ImLunchHour]

@TheGTAHighRoller Its a good series i recommend it

[TheGTAHighRoller]

@ImLunchHour Thx for not being an douche who's like "Oh Ur SuCh A N00B u NoOb" agaon thx! ill try to find that series that u were talking about!

[baseballbats28]

[PublicZombies]

[kazarific15994]

Well, im official creeped out O.O

[TheSilsen]

i think the spookiest part is that the deaf man can hear and a blind mand saw it!

[Holkerzu]

After one sent a poem, another came up to make Mary drew more.

xD

[nightbirdskill]

dam you should be a art teacher at some huge collage. nice work and this is kinda fun to watch but it makes me sad that i cant draw a strait line, and that's not an exzeration!

[Thalesyo]

She will make the "MUAHAHAHAHAHA" next time after she does the Vincent Price poem from Thriller.

[Adr336411]

My teacher shwoed me this last year as a example as a oxymoron

[EdwardXVI]

Draw an evil knight sitting atop his battle stead riding from a mutilated battle field!

[TheBeta9]

WAT

[TheDRAG54]

You should draw a new skin for Karthus from Leage of Legends that would be really cool.

[lorgop2000]

please draw mario breaking a block :)

[cantstoplvlingup]

where the sun is up but u cannot see

where there is only one of thee

u might be scare from limb to limb

while the monstor face contains has a grin

we shall all go far and wide

to any place we can hide

but it will surely track us down

destroying every.. single.. town

were getting covered by its dark wing

the name of this beast is the thing

[DudeMonkeySammich]

Mary, I just watched all of your videos and loved you after the first.

Now what I've noticed is that you have befitting music for all of your videos, so I was thinking we could put that in reverse!

Make a drawing based on how you feel about this music video:

youtube.com/watch?v=nacrjuPSii­M

[10starwalkthroughs]

The darkest dream i had once

It seemed so real, i feel like a dunce

I sat at school waiting for class

and learned abit from sweet young lass

She seemed a bit sick though, ill as could be

And then with surprise she up and bit me

A zombie you see, was what i dreamt

And now you know just how well i slept

[axhunter360]

Orca fighting the Lochness Monster

THAT WOULD BE EPIC

[themannydanny]

My Mother used to recite this to me!

[TheContentDizzle]

I will get this out of the way, as I'm sure you hear it a lot. Your drawings are simply fantastic. The simple yet complicated look along with the detailed textures and overall feel of the painting, give it a very hallow'en like feel.

Yet again, very nice work and good job!. Looking forward to your next one!

p.s. Do more drawings on these creepy little stories!. They're awesome! ;D

[TheLizardvideos]

awesome!
