Waitingby *shimoda7

Traditional Art / Drawings / Surreal

It's kinda hard to write a description for this drawing since it represents a lot of different, mostly contradictory concepts.
The basic idea is about this person missing out on something that is happening all around her, while she's standing there waiting for it to happen. However, we don't know how she's gotten there and why she choses to stay there, if she's been given a choice at all.

- Conté pencil, Ivory Black pencil and graphite powder on paper
- 42 x 30 cm (A3)
- about 30 hours

Thanks for looking, and hope you like it.

Something about this resonates with me....I am that girl standing there waiting. Wonderful work.

no reason or need to explain. it is self-explanatory. i chose this particular piece because it is more than an excellent rendering (all of your work is stunning). It is a surreal marvel!
