RE: "Nostalgia" (Graphite and Charcoal on paper)
Wow! Your character is alive on your drawing specially the eyes! They speak of something that I am trying to decipher. You have very crisp details there. Indeed, all your hardwork are worth it.
Do you have a model photo for your drawing or is this just your pure imagination? And congratulations on finally finishing it! How long did it take you anyway?
Thank you. You're right on the eyes, I believe they don't match with the other elements of the picture. At first glance, you'll see a child playing with sand, an idea of what childhood should be like, the eyes tell a different story though. I used a reference picture and it took close to two months, I started it on thr 4th of September, finished it 31st of October.
After I posted my first comment, I thought the eyes and the background somehow show a positive child in a middle of a war. I don't know. It just dawned on me...
Wow, you really took time with your drawing! But again, it's all worth it! 😊
