Description "Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?"

-Bob Marley

Media Recipe: 95% Crayolas 1% ballpoint pen 4% my little secret...Creativity: Infinite.

tips: using crayons means using layers so soft strokes is key. also start with light colors first and work your way to the shadows at the end. i started this piece using the peach color crayon to make the outline and figure.

To see more of my art go to facebook.com/ARTfromtheheART | instagram @artisticalshell as i don't post on dA often due to time restrictions.

you must know the human eye very well, and i want to take a guess at what you used the ballpoint pen for, im guessing either the lashes or the tiny veins in the eye...
