Artist's Comments

I miss doing color pencil works so decided to do one.
So, my piece exhibits the very natural part of life and that's "aging". Many of us fear this stage and i really don't know why 'coz i know to myself that i won't be. I guess you just have to know the right things to do when the time comes and be openminded.

I drew a woman holding a mask who shows half of her face. She shows a sign of being ashamed that she's already old but realized there's nothing wrong to it, instead, be proud 'coz she's not alone. Everyone will come to this point.

done with: color pencil on grain fill watercolor paper

the shading on this is beautiful... especially difficult with colored pencils. wut type did u use? i usually run with PrismaColor but its impossible to shade with em seeing as they are softer tipped. i have yet to find any good hard tip colors..... beautifully done tho!
