Description This drawing I have been working many many hours on. Can't even count them, really took my time to perfect it. I feel happy with the outcome, mostly because the theme of the drawing means a lot to me. I guess you can make up your own thoughts about it...
I used a picture of myself and my dress for the pose, changed my features a little in the face, as how I would love to look like, bigger lips and pointier nose.
Thanks for all the comments and faves on the ealier wips, hope you like the result

Made with a B and 3B pencil.
30x40 cm.

Wow...just...wow...I could never dream of being able to create something so beautiful... People say I draw realistic, but my drawings are cartoon-like compared to yours.

absolutely great work , I love the way you do the hair, it looks so natural and light. wery good job actually, when I looked your gallery, I wonered why these looks so familiar, and then I figured that you are the one of them who inspirated me for drawin real people and figures. That was the time when I eaven didn't know place like DA, I somehow found your website, and first I had viewed your gallery there I took pencil and paper and started to draw. So thank you

mr-squirrel [2006-07-10 21:11:36 +0000 UTC]

excellent work and i think "yes" is the answer to the title

i have to say that at first glance the face reminded me of avril lavigne... maybe the expression i don't know.
anyway it's truly a great piece, congratulations

Absolutely stunning. I love how smooth the backgroun is.. I would never have the patience to do that. Everything else perfect as well... and I'm admiring the dress too.

innocuus-admirato [2006-06-28 01:17:29 +0000 UTC]

excellent... everything about this is superbly done... the face, the dress, everything.

The only thing I'm even intrigued with changing at all is I can't help but wonder how it'd look with faint little cells (or, i guess, scales) in the wings, to make then anatomically correct. But even without that, this is gorgeous.

Thank you very much.
Yeah could be an idea, I kind of just like to make wings very simple. I have tried making really detailed wings once and I felt like it wasn't that great, simple seems to work better with me when it comes to wings.

Well your wings beat the pants off of mine any day, so I really shouldn't be talking!

You know, it's been years since I've picked up a pencil or had the yearning to suddenly draw. But after seeing this beautifully intricate sketch I can feel a trace of something I once knew fill the day with promise.

Zindy, your drawing speaks to me, as cliche`d as it may sound. It's breathtaking and inspiring. The position of the figure, the wings, they're all perfect. Thanks for giving me the urge to pick up a pencil and let go...

I am really happy to hear that, really. It's great, I sincerely hope you refind your passion. Drawing is the best, changes so many things.
