Concept
I've been going through therapy, and one of the things he keeps telling me is to just let go and give myself over to whatever I am feeling at the moment. I spend a lot of time bottling up emotions and thinking it's 'bad' to feel that way, and I 'can't' feel this way. He said no matter what, no matter how tied down I am by all the bad things, it's still okay to feel what I feel.

Then he got me to start meditating. So I meditate and just.. the bad stuff is still there. It's still tying me down and it's still in my life, but for a little while I can just close my eyes and ignore it.

A friend also wanted to see me draw my character Drove, so I did.

Medium
This is my usual mixture of colored pencils and watercolors. Everything is watercolor except for her skin and the metal jewelry. Those are done in colored pencils. I also added tiny highlights of metallic paint to some of the metal work, it just adds a slight shimmer to the original.

Awards/Shows
N/A

Prints
Will be available once I can get a high quality photograph of this.

Original
Sold

Side Note
I want to draw more. That said, the character Drove was a blood elf on world of warcraft, but I didn't want to have a piece of art I couldn't sell. So I went with a blonde elf in general with the type of clothing I would like to see on the character. I will also be replacing this photograph with a nice one once I get it photographed on something other then my phone.
