Description I was really in the mood for drawing, and this image really inspired me.

I absolutely love this photo by [link] and I used it as a reference. (I did tweak a couple of things).

Also, I do realize this is not perfect but I hope I did it some justice.

Time: approx. 3 hrs.
Materials: 3H, 8B graphite pencils, charcoal pencil, kneaded eraser, cotton balls, and q-tips.

PS. I tried to get the quality as good as possible but it did not transfer exactly the same on the computer as it really is.


If you like my work, please consider and/or . It's very much appreciated.
