After the stormby *sinhalite

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / People / Portraits

Emotional storm... Elemental forces, dangerous and capable of destroying everything on their way. But without them we are not humans anymore.

Started as a quick sketch, nothing fancy but just study of emotions. Then I went further and further into the mood and ended here.
Here warm thoughts go to to

, my true friend, who always helps me to land on my feet after my countless storms. Dzięki, Leszku

Music background: Craig Armstrong, "After the storm"

I am not going to lie the first time i saw this scrolling through I thought it was just another still photo. On second glance however I noticed that it was not just another photo of some woman like you see more of on deviant art these days. After looking it over several times I have come to appreciate the intricate details you put into this piece of art. The freckles on her shoulder and face the eye liner running all make this a perfect example of true art. The texture of the wife beater even looks real. Now on a deeper level, the look on her face certainly depicts and insinuates that she has been through a storm whether it be physical or metaphorical i can not say. This is a very capturing piece and it shows you took the time to make it just perfect. well done

This is a terrifically drawn piece! Soft lines and careful shading is used along with flawless construction. It makes us think, "What just happened? Where is she? Why does she look that way?" I especially do like the way you drew her eyes and hair; the detail is great.
Some things I recommend you can work on is more depth colour wise. it is beautiful, true, but some more different or dynamic shades make for a more interesting picture overall. If you work on that, it'll add to your impact. Personally, though, I would also like to see some more going on in a picture which also adds to interest.
I'm a big fan of this piece! I'd love to see more work from you, good luck
