Description
Sometimes angels wish to live on earth with human beings for some reasons. The main reason is love... Angels have to pay THE PRICE for what they want. They leave their beautiful wings at heaven's garden and don't return there until their human lifetime is up... Paradise turns into the dark jail to angels, if the earth's light allures them as fire does tender butterflies...hmm... I'm in lyric mood tonight.
The Price: colored in Photoshop

This is a great drawing! The shading is very realistic, and the short story you wrote to go along with it is nice.

I like the great detailing and the pose. extreme details, especially in the hair. I would like to see that in color to compare, but I think the b&w works well.

The lower backmuscles are a bit off,
but woman you can draw!
I would never trade my wings and heaven for earth lol

you're right. they are 
why? heaven is very boring, probably!
thank you!

heaven boring? haha
I think heaven is a state of mind,
Here on earth we are searching for heaven almost all the time.
Most find it in temporary paradadises and always want more, never have enough.
So how great would it be to actually be in that heavenly state now and forever!
I'm more than sure I wouldn't trade anything for that
now how about you

I prefer to stay on earth most of time, but a little bit of haeven sometimes would be nice

I feel that everything from the gate on in the background is just...blah....everything up to the gate is really good tho
π: 0 β©: 1
from this place in detail, plz?
why?

Compared to the rest of the drawing...the background seems to be very monotone. The hills/mountains in the background could be darker in some areas because they aren't smooth like you drew them....even in a misty background you can see changes in surface....

it's probably a good thing some angels decide to walk the earth. they do thier work, only in a different way
i think i may have met a couple myself.
anyway, beautiful work once again. your pencil work, shading is increadible.

the fact that people (and according to your artwork, even angels) have to always give up something to attain something else, without knowing which is the bigger loss...
