Description I poured my soul into this. How glad I was that it was done, but how I missed working on it, too.
I drew and finished this months ago to give to Will as his birthday gift back in June. I may not post much for a while, seeing as I'm going on a trip for a month and a bit.

Anyway, please enjoy.

Time: 15-18 hours if I remember right, drawn over a month and a half or so.
Media: graphite pencils (ranging from H2 through B4 or so.)

Advanced critique?

You've captured the confliction and naivety in her eyes perfectly. >< Sorry. I don't have much more to add. It's beautiful.

Graphite, you say?

This was quite an involved drawing from start to finish, and even though it is now two years old, I am still very pleased with it.

Hi just wanted to invite you to see the video I made with some of the artists from Deviant Art (26). When you have time go to my Deviant Art profile page there are 2 links there, one for a rapidshare and one to my You Tube page. The video is called "The Rose" The Tou Tube page is the fastest. Thanks Jessie

You've made Emmy look older and maturer. And somehow to me that's made her look to me like Evangeline Lilly from Lost.

crossrhythm In reply to Rosesquirrel [2007-01-29 07:28:29 +0000 UTC]

Thankyou for your thoughts. I suppose, looking at it, that I did somehow make her look older... but then you could say that it is a decision that requires a huge amount of maturity, though, isn't it? IMO.
