Description
Yeh... just a splurge my mind had last night from the stress I've been under.You see, when under stress, I retreat into my 'emotional shell', waiting in the comfortable darkness until it's clear to come back out. A shutting off of my emotions to prevent hurt. Sometimes to others, but usually to myself.
So here I am, waiting passively to come back out from my shell...
Yeah, it's not completely black, and I left the outlines in there. Can't really notice them unless you're looking for them though, I guess. Could've spent a bit more work on it, but I like it how it is.
'Bout maybe an hour in Photoshop with mah tablet.

It looks quite good, actually, and the outlines are no distraction. I really like the lighting and overall darkness. I think we all have to dive into the shell now and again.
