This is beautiful! I found this on "things posted in the last 10 seconds" and it was the first thing I noticed. I'm very glad to have discovered you!


Attempted critique:

The face seems a bit distorted, especially the eyes and the positioning of the right eye, but the distortion fits in perfectly with the idea of a (negatively) altered state of mind. I love the contrast in lighting.

Wonderful work! :star:x5

It illustrates perfectly what drugs can do to people, we can see such suffering and sadness in his eyes. Great job!

wow. I'm loving the blue mixed in. the right eye is bit higher than the other, though.
