Description
Day 360 of my 366 daily art project! A lot more are on the way! Please read all about my project and charity below and in my journal.Misha Collins as Castiel - STILL the most challenging person I've ever drawn. And still one of my favorite actors.
>>Created with charcoal and chalk on 2.5x3.5 ACEO gray 500 series Strathmore charcoal paper. About 7 hours.
-----------------
♥ For every day of 2012, I will be drawing one ACEO sketch card. Every single one will be for sale - ALL proceeds to be donated to charity at the end of 2012.
My charity of choice is a local foundation called Alternatives to Violence, who is currently raising money to build a safehouse. This safehouse will provide a secure shelter to men, women and children who have recently escaped physical and sexual abuse.
With the safehouse, 312 individuals every year will receive crisis intervention, counseling, safety planning, advocacy and shelter.
Together, through art, we can help make a difference.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
If you love this piece and the safehouse project, you can see the card to purchase at Etsy for $13 + shipping: [link]

Thank you! I use a light coat of Blair Very Low Odor Spray fixative on all my work. I've tried nearly every other brand and this is the one that preserves shades and colors the best!

Thanks for the advice, I'll give it a go.
I guess a light coat is the way to go. Cheers pal.

it's a original show I have to admit that, it's kinda like DoctorWho spinning a new idea on somethings that we barely notice.

Like the mermaids, we all assumed it was beautiful girls that they could transform into but no they can transform into anything while their true form is like a body that has pieces of skin sown together.
