Description Hi hi, I'm here with another artwork. These days I'm bursting with inspiration and drew 5-6 sketches in 2 days It's great to feel the inspiration this much


Anyway, this is for , actually I would draw her a pic inspired by Blackmore's Night awesome song "Wish You Were Here", but I didn't quite like my first sketch, so I drew one inspired from their another song "Under a Violet Moon", as the title indicates. I can say that more than its lyrics, the title of the song and the melody inspired me to draw this. Hope you like it Niina!


I was also browsing through some news articles about contests and came across this amazing one with the theme "Moonlight". I decided to enter it with this piece, so this is also my entry for 's "Moonlight Contest". Go check it here: [link]


I hope you all like this! Please please full-view




Medium used: colored pencils & gel pens & chalk pastels & fineliner & fibre pens

The details in this are wonderful! I hope everyone views this full sized. They are missing out if they don't. The moon is particularly well done. I love how stylized you made it!

Thanks a lot, glad you like it!
The moon was a challenge for me too, I was so afraid of ruining it, but somehow it came out better than I imagined. It's probably due to the texture developed after applying white gel pen on colored pencil shades. I'm not really sure though, I should try it again to be sure
