I just noticed the little reflective parts in his eyes make hearts!
ANYWAY... hehe.
This is very good, but you might want to work a tad on shading. Other than that, lovely.

True, I've still got a lot to learn. I learn something new with each drawing I do, so hopefully that'll be the lesson with this one. Thanks for the advice.

I'm glad you try to improve with each one; some people just stay the same. I try to improve too. Seems like you're doing pretty well so far.
Welcome.

I need to be honest here. I saw this drawing and I knew who the original photographer was. I feel like such a dork.

But on to bigger and better things! I admire your use of symbolism, and use of cryptic messages. Very nice drawing. Bravo, bravo.

Was it just around that corner... some old thought that tortured me, years ago, when dreams don't matter, i had hidden it so deep behind ignorance i'd rather hide myself and scream to sleep. Now it's there under my skin, still in there... around some corner in my head.

Allright ! This is really expressive and the contrast makes it speak in the way you wanted it to. Keep this up... i really like it!

...that single thought.... the first crack in the dam. Old memories surge into consciousness, freezing me in place. Fear is an anchor.


Thanks so much for your advice. I went and bought my first charcoal pencil for this one. As soon as I started applying it, I could tell it was going to make a difference. I'm glad you like it

Swain to shatter the frail human condition, this anchor leads itself heavily through the mind and pulls down with the full force of a tide.

I *will* quote you on that
And you just made me feel like doing some charcoal sketches now. Thanks!

Thanks so much. The reflections are supposed to indicate all the fears that can ossur in love and relationships.

Thank you, I'm glad you like it

The rings say vereor totus - I put "fear all" into an online translator from english to latin.
