Description "Bitterness, bitterness
Knowledge stripped of wisdom
Retreats to silence and lost horizons
The dream is over, No absolute truth,
But that there is no absolute truth
No north Star to guide us we gorge
Ourselves on softminded conformity
None so blind that talks so proud
Bloated in our liberal illusion
Indulging in a banquet of words
Abundant in our philosophies
Satisfied to see truth mocked
Standing aloof rich in delusion
Bitterness is the poison well
Found in the dessert of thought
Where to think is to be hurt
Conformity to the crowd
A darkness that consumes
Conscience." - Adrian Wait

Well its a brand spanking new year, and with it i hope to be producing ALOT more art . But with the new year i also think its important to let any disappointments or challenges you've fought go, before its thorny grip envelopes you. A new year, always marks for a new beginning right?
I honestly don't know how I've survived for so long without using my Faber-Castell classic colour pencils to be perfectly honest...I'VE MISSED THEM SOO MUCH~!!!!! :') hahaha. Im sorry that this is currently only a photograph of the completed picture, my scanner at home isn't large enough soo it looks like I'm going to be making a trip to the Library sometime soon, and ill replace this photo with the scanned image (I just hope they have a scanner operating there :/) . Im thinking of doing a whole collection of these with varying emotions and flowers too, no promises though haha . There are still a few elements of this that I'm not quite happy about, so its very possible that i might try and redo it sometime in the future.

I've also been considering making a small tutorial/walkthrough for this, but i just want to know if anyone is actually interested in that? hahaha ^^"


Let me know what you think~!

EDIT** Just got the scan done for you all,haha like said here [link] Now all of my horrid mistakes are clearly visible haha - i will probably redo this picture sometime in the future ... just to put my crazy perfectionist mind to eaze XDD

Materials:Faber-Castell Classic Colour Pencils, F, 2H & 2B Lead Pencils, WestArt Heavyweight Cartridge Pad
Time: From the initial sketches to the final product approximately 12-13 hours.
