Hi,
After trying out some new techniques I'm back to my beloved graphite.

This drawing took me more than I expected (about 1,5 month), mostly because I couldn't force myself to start that huge, dark background for a long time.

The idea of this pic is something about everyone, having several different sides of themselves. But I'd love to know how YOU understand the concept.

I'd like to dedicate the drawing to dear

, together with a biiig Thanks for the nice surprise.

Tools:
*Watercolour paper, size between A4 and A3
*B and 2B lead pencils (both mechanical and simple ones)
*Crimson colour pencil
*Kneadable and simple soft erasers
*Some cotton buds
Credits for the inspiring picture reference go to

.
The girl was partly inspired by an old photoshoot of Amy Lee.

He needs to go, she doesn't want him to. He wants to stay, she knows he must go.

This is amazing, I found it from the stock of the boy.

You did such a good job.
Graphite is my downfall, so I certainly envy you.

Thank you!! Graphite is not that difficult, just keep experimenting here and there, like blending, erasing, and you'll soon become satisfied with the results!
