Description
A close friend of mine passed away recently and I've kind of been in a slump. (not the girl in the drawing just to clarify) This piece is a reflection on death and life and their oneness- the drawing is quite detailed. (ballpoint pen, gouache and goldleaf )Related content

I am so sorry for your loss. Art is essential to the grieving process, for me at least. It's where some of my best works came from. And this, this is just beautiful.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I genuinely hope she's in a better place.
The art is beautiful though, such fantastic detail and cleanliness, which is difficult with pen.
Feel better.

Pen? wow, good detail and so clean work.
The image seems a little Mucha, but with more simbolism and a darker side and message.
I like some details like the flies and the eye behind the bones.
I'm sorry for your friend.
R.i.p.

Great use of symbols, especially as the life forms morph into them.
