Description
I sketched this the other day from a picture I took when I was in SWC in 2005. Today I scanned it, and worked on it in PS for about 8 hours, so this is the fastest I've able to spit something out in PS. I'm dedicating this to because that's why I felt inspired and capable of completing this task, her work is beautiful, and it inspires me to become better and push my limits as an artist

Everything about it is perfect; I especially love the dorsal shading, the chin patch toning, and the little rush of water behind his pec.
