Speaking as someone who gives herself stitches I have one thing to say- "Ow."
Speaking as an a person who barely calls herself an artist I have quite a few more words- one of those being "Wow"
You're work is simply beautiful, and your use of graphite makes me salivate. How in the world you managed not to smug it I will never understand, I always end up with black marks up and down the side of my hand and my wrist; even as far up as my elbow some times.

Thank you! I'd like to think that after all these years I've become somewhat more proficient but you'd be a better judge then I. I'm biased

lol...well...i got to think...i eather dont remember them or start writing books about them...

i had one where i was in a row boat with two other men (because im always a man in my dreams for whatever reason) and we where going down a river in the woods...one broke a leg, and one broke an arm, and i bove overbored when one droped a paddle and hit my head on the bottum, when i came back up i had a long wood splinter that went through my head and when i pulled on it i could feel it moving the hair on the back of my head...that was such a cool feeling ^^ somehow it went through my forehead, through my nasal cavity and out the ack of my head without killing me, and i could feel the blood running down my throaght... (cant spell)

that was a recent one...id gtake me a wile to remember more...

I love the completed piece. Its so strangely beautiful. I didn't like the idea of sewing the eye up at first cuz obviously it looks like it hurts, but that feeling kinda faded away and I just really love this now. ^^ I think its gorgeous.
