Artist's Comments

i think the image speaks for itself so i'll skip the description and go on with the technical stuff.

- graphite on Lana drawing paper
- photo reference (my own hand)
- about 12 hours
- 12" x 9"

hope you like it


edit: added watermark. see also [link]

edit 2: This drawing is about one being the prisoner of ones own actions. It has nothing to do with the 'Drawing Hands' by M.C. Escher and no he's not my role model so please stop asking/assuming this.

Daily Deviationprisoner of my own by *shimoda7 speaks for itself and tells about all the artist's soul, that "we are prisoners of our own". Our love of art connects us with chains, art is our passion and no power on earth can make us leave it.... (Suggested by ~NosferatuGFX and Featured by $spinegrinder)

i feel free in my cage but lost in the wide world of nothing,
i feel happy within my depression but sad if im alone in happines,
i am a freak in a sheep pen alone in the group,
i stand dark against the the white back of society,
and i am PROUD........

Sometimes we need to remember that pencils have erasers too, and it's possible to erase the chains.

Really nice picture, hits close to home =)
That's some masterful pencilwork :) Very Escher-esque picture; I like it.

This is very, very awesome... Escherish, in a way.
