size: 40x40cm (~16x16"); done on A2 185g/m² paper (download should be the original size ~1200x1200px)

I picked the title "Crying Inside", there was an (almost-) tie between this and "The Anxiety of Romance" and I somewhat prefered this more simple one :)
Thanks for the suggestions to:
:iconlady-shirakawa: :iconkaledrub: :icontimparmax: and everyoneelse who suggested titles and voted :blowkiss:
...the title "Crying Inside" was suggested by =kaledrub Thanks :hug:

I promised to provide some information on my technique on the finished drawing so this time I will name my tools and what I used them for :)

background: pure graphite powder applied with brushes, a small one to rub it in a little more for the dark parts and a big one to make more subtle greys.

foreground: ...I mean the blurry plant-part on the right, same as background only some parts were "drawn" with a dirty blending stump, that's stuffed with graphite ;) Some individual leaves were done with a mechanical pencil, so is the tiny twig.

hair: pure graphite stick for the darks, 6B pencil and mechanical pencils for the details. Everything blended with the blending stump. Highlights and flyaway hairs done with a pencil-shaped eraser and a kneaded eraser :)

face: Drawn as usual with my 2B 0,5mm-mechanical pencil mainly, 6B for darkest parts.

Daily DeviationCrying Inside by =ElenaR JurgenDoe says...."Magnificent and wonderful portrait work and the face looks so sad. With "crying inside" ElanaR captured a wonderful and very original expression and this is far one of the best portrait pencil images." (Suggested by =JurgenDoe and Featured by `FallenRox)

oh I just love the hair and the eyes...she's so sad :tears: It kind of looks like she's hiding and someone just found her crying. The little moles on her face look so good, a lot of the times when artists draw moles it just looks like black dots(like me :giggle:) I really wish I could see one of your drawings in real life, it just literally looks so damn smooth :giggle:

Somewhere far along this road
She lost her soul
To a man so heartless
How could you be so heartless?
Thanks sweet Robs :glomp:
I love your interpretation of the situation :love:
It'd be cool if I could show my drawings in real life as well. I just notice I've drawn her pretty close to life size, could be interesting to see it hung up on eye-level :slow:
