Well, it's done now. This is a portrait I drew of my friend Danielle. I chose to draw this particular picture because I liked the attitude in it. I liked doing something different for a change, not a traditional portrait. I went alot darker than I usually do on this drawing. At first I thought I went too dark with the face, but I like the way it turned out now. I felt like I had 2 options for a background on this drawing...either go really dark, or really light. Anything else would have made the drawing look very monotone in my opinion. In the end I chose to just leave the background the paper color. The mouth and vest are probably my favorite parts of the drawing. Hope you like it.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
I'm a lover of visual impacts. I like brilliant colors and shapes. And I decided to collect a whole stack of deviations that reflect that taste. These pieces showcased below deserve every bit of publicity you can give them. x)P
