Description Very long work before releasing this drawing that stretched out over years. This is the one that made me realize that my 'style' was details. Painful work, i must enjoy pain,maybe it makes me live.
The adventure began a very hot day of august in a small and remote village of deep Spain. There was this age-old olive tree in front of me, and in my thoughts this gorgeous curly girl I would never see again. I came back a few times to continue drawing the tree, protected from the hard sun by its distorted shadow. Once back in france I just invented the rest (the intricated ground)
Stupid me,it has been drawn on a bad recycled paper from a sketch block, that turned to yellow. I looks like it is 2 centuries old now.

(I post it again, the previous one I had messed up with upload)

I absolutely love it. The detail its surreal... the time taken is surreal... I can't believe this. And you call that a sketch? I prefer the term "masterpiece"

THE PAIN!
omfg its unbelievable, it has more details than real world, but her knee doesnt have this tiny hole just below and little left from the kneecap (the only crit i could make up, the paper suits perfectly for the purpose)

Not quite as awe-inspiring as the first but incredible nonetheless....awesome details. (Kinda looks like an awkward, pokey place to remove one's shirt )

The detail is really sweet, but I think her face needs some work bro... everything else is awesome tho.

(the girl's face is ugly... she is the "type" of girl that seems shady to me, rat face? can't explain it)
