When I spread my wings

Description

I made this drawing yesterday night, in.. half an hour, or something. Maybe a little less.
I've used photo reference, and I've worked with 2B, HB and colored pencils. (grey and white, as you can see. xD)

I entered in =hollyography's contest with this piece :)

Please comment, and critique's welcome, as always!:)
EDIT: as I said: critique's welcome. :';)

When I made this drawing, it really made me thing of this song, which I really like.

Anouk - Nobody's wife

I'm sorry for the times that I made you scream
for the times that I killed your dreams
for the times that I made your whole world rumble

for the times that I made you cry
for the times that I told you lies
for the times that I watched and let you stumble

It's too bad, but that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, 'cause I, I'll never be nobody's wife

I'm sorry for the times that I didn't come home
left you lyin' in that bed alone
was flyin' high in the sky when you needed my shoulder

you're like a stone hangin' round my neck, see
cut it loose before it breaks my back, see
I've gotta say what I feel before I grow older

I'm sorry but I ain't gonna change my ways
you know I've tried but I'm still the same
I've got to do it my own way

It's too bad, but hey, that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, I, I'll never be nobody's wife

It's too bad, but hey, that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, I, I'll never be nobody's wife

wut. I didn't comment on this one. >_<

well. I like it.

...

okay, I really like it! Happy now?

...

right. critique. she does look like you, though unintentionally =P which isn't bad at all, of course. The effect of white and grey on brownish paper is very pretty I think, you should do that more often! (well, or other colours, obviously; but drawing on dark background, I mean.) And I just fell in love with her expression :aww: she looks so determined, the hard look in her eyes, but her mouth seems to laugh a little. it's just fantabulous.

(and, once again, I'm no fan of the hairdo at all. what is it with you drawing hair? :o )
