Taking a break from another art project to get this out of my system.

I'm a brand-new Twilight fan; I went and saw the movie on a complete whim and became obsessed. I saw the movie a second time before I finally picked up the books, and I'm almost done with Breaking Dawn now, but even after just seeing the movie I knew Twilight was going to be my new muse for a while.

This takes place during New Moon, when Bella launches herself off a cliff in order to trigger her hallucinations of Edward (well, his voice at least). The title is the last thing she says to him before she succumbs to the rip tide. I tried to use pictures of Pattinson and Stewart as reference, but I'm not so good at drawing from life (or pictures), so... meh.

I found that coming up with an idea to draw was rather difficult. In my other drawings, it's so easy to just draw couples together, hugging or kissing or holding each other. But Edward and Bella struggle with just touching each other. There's so much tension between them for so much of the series, that it's not enough to just draw them as a couple. I want to capture that tension, but it's really hard!
