Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes...

This is a drawing based on a photo of my beautiful friend, Lisa, ~BlackButterflyLMK [link] I havent been feeling very inspired the past few weeks, but at the same time I really wanted to draw So I just started this sketch yesterday, and really liked it so thought I'd do a finished piece of it. In the photo I drew from it was cropped on the sides and when I tried to make it up from my head I kept making her head and hair really big so just decided to add borders. I was going to write lyrics but then just started looking around the room, and saw my spiderweb fabric hanging on the wall and thought spiderwebs might look cool especially with halloween coming too I spent a while on the details like the eyes and necklaces, and I havent been very happy with how I've been doing hair lately, I've been using too much paint and not charcoal so it hasnt been as smooth, but I didnt use any paint in the hair this time, so hopefully it looks softer. Title is from lyrics by Evanescence. Blah blah..hope ya like it
