Pencil sketch I did this evening as I am waiting for fresh markers to arrive in the mail...
"Wuthering Heights" is one of my favourite books, and Heathcliff and Cathy are possibly the least likeable, most odious selfish star-crossed lovers in English litterature...!

I really love the line weight in the picture and her profile is beautiful. I do think that Heathcliff's are just a little awkward. The thumb looks a little like a pinky on the right hand. It is a beautiful sketch.

Thanks!
Ahah yes, you caught me! Actually Heathcliff's hands were the last part of the sketch I drew, and I got quite frustrated because I couldn't get them to look right and I couldn't erase properly without ruining Cathy's face. So at one point I just gave up although they do look weird...

No problem, I completely understand the pose for the hand is a little hard to do.

Fantastic drawing.


I love the book too, and you're dead on about "least likable." That characterizes them wholly. Still, an amazing read. You've served the source well.

Great sketch from one of my favorite books!  It was because the two lovers were such flawed, selfish, abusive people that I ended up loving the book!

I agree - they make for two very unusual characters, which was also why I find them so interesting.

Oh my goodness I am in love with this. Wuthering Heights is also one of my all time favorite books! Your stylization is really fantastic. Her expression is perfect.

Eszra01 [2013-09-11 02:33:48 +0000 UTC]

I still say these two should have just run off together and not return until Heathcliff was wealthy and prove that they love each other and that's it. But then the story wouldn't have been so good then wouldn't it?

KmyeChan In reply to Eszra01 [2013-09-11 08:14:16 +0000 UTC]

But what would be the fun of that when they could make everybody's existence utterly miserable and end up failing at life entirely, I ask you?

I was just talking to my English teacher today about how much I despise this book. xD

Love the drawing though. I love how angular you make your characters features, it's very unique.
