Artist's Comments

"We are all just fragile shells of existence, being eroded away by the waves of time."

- Done on 8.5"x11" printer paper with 0.5mm Bic mechanical pencil.

This one was a little more challenging because I didn't have a reference photo or anything to work off of. I wanted to take a shot at surrealism so here it is, hope you all enjoy it.
My last complete drawing of 2005, happy new year everyone!

Breathtaking. If this is really your first crack at surrealism, I'm even more impressed.

Fascinating concept and exquisite style. Great looking details and fine sense of movement in the composition. Wonderful design.

That is absolutely beautiful. And with a .5 mechanical pencil no less! How do you do smooth shading with that? Bravo!

Very impressive shattering effect. Nice study of the bone facial structure and the hand. ^^

Awesome is like gravity: the more awesome you are, the more likely awesome is going to gravitate towards you.
