Description My 300th deviantions! This is my favorite pencil piece so far~~ I love it. X3
This is also the first piece of mine approved by my teacher of its quality, my stones finally look more like stones now...

Anyway, this piece is done when I was extremly annoyed, but this piece actually calmed me. I am so happy. ^_^

Medium: Pencils. (HB, 2B, 6B)

This is a really lovely pencil work; your shading and texturing are wonderful. I like how the light shines through the trees and shows on his cloak, that's a very nice touch.

Superb pencil work! The amount of shades you put into it is just astounding. And you actually use different pencils (I just use an HB for everything)!

I usually use HB for everything too. But I just decided to sit down and use different pencil for once to make a nice piece. hee 6B is sweet~~~

I don’t really have anything to say that hasn’t been said. This piece is absolutely amazing. I love the character and I love the background- both are beautifully done and fit together. For me, it was the light coming down from in-between the leaves onto his cloak that made this picture real for me. You did an excellent job on the lighting. And your rocks have perfect texture! The character really gives it a whole new atmosphere on top of it…it’s one of spirit and there’s almost a look of determination on his face. You did a great job on the little bird and the words match the image perfectly- in fact they add to its spirit. And I entirely love the topic of birds!!!

vespan [2003-08-25 17:01:29 +0000 UTC]

the character's soliloquy (well, i guess it could count as talking to the bird), really gives you a strong sense of who he is, what his dreams and aspirations are. this peice has deep meaning, and the composition is great! i really like this character, i'm going to see more of him... right? this is just great, +fav!

The detail in this image is just gorgous! The textures and the shading are wonderful. The way that you handled the detailing of the tree behind the figure is breathtaking. The way that you handle pencil work is lovely the mixture of soft blending and the way that you carry your strokes for the detailed areas is very attractive. The detail in the bird came out great. The way that you handled the fabric is great, the depth and realistic feel of the cloth and the entire picture in general is wonderful! You sence of space and depth in this picture really makes the figure an the bird in the forground have weight. Absolutely beautiful job!
