...the rotten world around me...

The concept behind this piece is clarified in the title. She's sick of everything bad around her and she doesn't want to deal with it anymore. The dried flowers and leaves represent the rotten world.

You can interpret in many different ways, such as she is seeing only good things around her so she's an optimistic person or something like that.

To me it has a deeper meaning. I don't want to write about it here, but this represents something by which I'm going to remember the end of this year, unfortunately. I'm just going to write this: it was the time I found out how naive I was and how certain people can hurt you.

Anyway, I haven't used this technique before, it was inspired by this tutorial: [link] but I actually did it in an almost completely different way. That's why I say it's just inspired by it.
I'm not completely satisfied with it, mostly because of the background. I might use this technique again though, it's a really fast one.

Material:
A3 Campap watercolor pad
Aquarelle colored pencils (Koh-I-Noor)
Soft pastel pencils (Koh-I-Noor)
Watercolors (Louvre)
Stock image as a reference for the girl: [link] by ~dazzle-stock
I also used this image [link] just to get the idea how to draw dry flowers.
