Leila sat, her arms wrapped tightly around her knees her every muscle tensed, in the corner of the shrine. “Relax” she had told her. How on earth was she supposed to relax?! She was so scared! Tears of frustration dripped down her cheeks leaving a small pathway through the silvery paint. Angrily she wiped them away. Crying wasn’t going to help her she thought bitterly. And I don’t want to cry. Whoever it is I’m sharing this night with I couldn’t care less but at least I want to keep my dignity. It couldn’t be long now... All in black ink, mixed with water, am really proud as that was my first try at shading with ink in different hues... The picture you see on the computer is about twice the size of the original so don't look at the lack of detail please!

A picture from my fanbtasy novel in which Leila finds out she has the powers to become a powerfull sorceress

Oooooh... I always wanted to draw this picture... well, this opose, that is.. I never succeeded though. My legs always get tangled up. Lonely is the word that pops up in my head when I see this...

:-) Meike de Nooy replies: "And lonely she is, and will be, for a long time to come, even though there are so many people who care for her! (It's my story, go checks it out when I have my wyverns page sorted out!)"

Oooooooooh~ B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L. i love the shading and different tones. You got talent Giiirl. (i did pell beautiful right didn't i? *studies it closely*~ looks good 2 me)

:-) Meike de Nooy replies: "Yep... You spelled that right thankyou! It's been a long while since someone commented on this one and I'm glad you did, cause I vbelieve it's the only totally in ink one on my page and I was quite happy with it even though it could use some imprvoements..."

I'd say there is just about the right amount of shading and texture. The scratchy lines in the shadding add to the tension in the picture, ditto to the dramatic black of the back ground. The simplicity of her face conveys a wealth of emotion with fewer detalis to bog it down. Nice work.

:-) Meike de Nooy replies: "Wow.. that's nicel;y said! Makes me all proud. It's a rather old picture, but I do like it because of the emotion. Thanks for commenting on it!"
