This. Is. AMAZING.

No, seriously, how did you do that?

You know what this reminds me of? This song from the Mozart Rock Opera called "Je Dors Sur Les Roses" ("I Sleep On Roses"). It's about this guy who gave up everything for the girl he loves, and then that girl left him and now he's left with nothing... It's really a beautiful song, and it was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw this... probably because I found this while looking for stock to make a photomanipulation about that song... Here's the song if you're interested... [link] It's beautiful even if you don't speak French.

Anyway, I'm talking too much about the song. This drawing is beautiful! I love the depth to it and the emotion... you are a seriously good artist. Especially the stem - that is just amazing.
