Description Graphite
37x28cm

This piece was inspired by a piece by ~genni entitiled Hold Yourself Together

Thank you to *lured2stock for the Polaroid Photos

This is a piece for my sister, for her 21st Brithday.
All the objects in the piece reflect her and her life; The ballet slippers show her love of dancing; the paper has biological language on it (chemical symbol for glucose) as she also loves biology, and is currently studying it at uni; the necklace and earrings show her love of jewelery; the filled glass is meant to be Southern Comfort and coke, her favourite drink, although its hard to tell cux its in black and white... this also represents her love of partying/going out; the drawing hand represents her love of drawing and art; the tulip respresents the 4 years she lived in Holland before moving back to Australia to go to uni (Tulips are the Dutch national flower).

I'm fairly happy with the outcome of this piece. I like the concept- basically her whole life put onto paper.

Hope you all like!

Hands down you are one of the most amazing people I've ever seen. This is fantastic! And I finally made it a favorite! lol

Very nice, the idea behind it is brilliant. However, the drawing tecnique is too "smooth", I mean without details. I think, it would be better with more details. Keep up the good work!

Now THIS is what I like to see. I like to see drawings with imagination. And an excellent imagination it is. The details, the shading, the concept, the execution - all fantastic. THIS is gorgeous. Your sister should feel honored to have this done. she should also feel pretty damn lucky to have a sister like you who cares enough to do something like this. Excellent work. I think i'm running out of adjectives to describe this. Wow....just...WOW.
