Amen, he's a genius writer and you are a very talented artist. I also like your background, although it clashes with the shading of his figure... sorry it was one of the things i noticed but as a whole its a great idea ^_^

Looking back (this piece was made years ago), I agree about the background. At the time, it seemed like splicing photos into the background was a great time saver, but it never seemed to work out. Maybe one day, if I get the time and patience to draw photo-realism, it'll be worthwhile, but I've more-or-less dropped the technique these days.

Mrs. Summerskill is a genius, and thank you. I'll most likely be using it in the future ^_~

Thanks for the compliments!
The trick with coloured pencils is to colour along your subject's contours, whether that's with the grain of wood, or in the direction of the folds in fabric. The human eye is good at picking out tiny lines, and using them to your advantage can really enhance your colouring.
