Congrats!!

close run ...but was as always should be here fun :OD

Sometimes the bars are on the inside.

great work!

Oooooooooh my goodness. The raw emotion that seeps from this is just ....powerful. what a statement. The stakes through the body are so symbolic...for every day we as humans face both those demons....our faith is tested and our self image is doubted...and daily we stand as if on a stage to the onlookers with their plastic smiles pasted acrossed their faces, waiting...as if their opinions mattered.
And somehow, even though we say the opposite, those opinions and expectations do matter. And they cut thru us in the most agonizing ways.
Id say well done, but its an understatement. I'm in awe.

the thumbnail looked like it was stretched skin (like a GIANT TATTOO!) awesome

Thank you for the comments and the fav's. This was hard to do emotionaly and the song kind of picked me. I diddnt plan it I just painted it.

Wooooow...now that is intense! You definitely captured the look of torment and pain in this painting which i feel can be hard to do. ..and this stirs up many emotions...it certainly fits the song lyrics. well done.

Powerful image, but really wonky anatomy in the neck and shoulder area. If you wanted more accurate proportions, the shoulders are 2 3/4 head widths across, and the neck should be 2/3 of a head width...His trapezius muscles just have me totally freaked out!

What a great piece author...but u did only a part of work...its missing politics,malice,bat taste and many many other nails....well done man

Thank you man! I needed that on this one. I think perhaps the very things you speak of have placed "Truth" in its grave and provides the steel to create the bars my man here is imprisoned/impaled by.
Perhaps the bars piercing his wrists should be entitled "good and evil"?
Thank you again.

Love the tune...and your work captures it well. Nice job!

Great lyrics

nicely drawn.....could be better if the background was more contrasting....GL author

I think i agree a bit with animany0000 But the Image itself is stunning! GL!

Thank you! You were right animany. I swapped the floor and the wall, added a baseboard and darkened the girl a little bit and it does look much better.

What a fabulous entry author...Perfect drawings with so lovely mood...Well done

How Adorable!!!! This is such a sweet job!

Excellent details, shapes and colors! GL!

well congrats on third to.

Thank you for the votes and comments.

The eyelashes are a bit too thick, almost scary looking, but the eyeball is well rendered, if a bit too pink...

i like your choice of green, the skin tone is also pretty good

I made some changes... I think now it's better! Thank u for your comments

beautiful!

u have worked on the eyelashes!! it looks very good now

Beautiful. The only thing I would have done was made shadows for the eyelashes so that they won't look like they're attached to the brow. But it is still very beautiful!

very nice perspective...well done author

love the color of her eyes

amazing work author

i think the hands are small

agrees with sophia. Hands' span would be the same length as the face.
