Description

I've always known I was different. My hair was long, with a subtle flow and black as the night, while every other person from the village had fuzzy brown hair. Also my brown eyes were different from the pitch black holes everyone had. People ignored me, treated me as if I didn't exist. Except my grandmother, nana, who called me her little olive. She loved me, and I loved her in return. I didn't understand her though. She was different as well, with her white long hair and her grey eyes. She always walked around as a queen, ignoring the fact everyone treated her as if she was a freak. My years in the village were lonely. Apart from nana, I did not have any human friends. Luckily I had my little dog, Dana, and a little bird I once saved from a certain painful death. I loved walking around with them in the fields, between the olive trees, on the beach.

There were often strangers at our large house. I saw them when I was cooking or cleaning up. They were strangers, not only because I didn't know them, but they also looked different. They had nana's grey eyes, long straight hair and a royal look about them. They always treated me nice, with respect even. But I was too small to understand who they were or where they came from... though I nowadays I know.


First of all: Full view is a must! My second entry to the OC contest of #PortraitPencilArt [link] ! I really enjoyed making the first entry for the contest, so I soon started the second one. Only this time, she's got herself a little story. I like her. This may not be the last time you'll hear from her. I like how she turned out as well, though I can't say I'll stick with this appearance. I also might change this little story here, just a bit. It's okay for now though, so we'll see. I'm very happy with her hair and mouth, less with her eyes. Don't know, I think it's the shape. It somehow doesn't add up. I'm never really satisfied, am I? :lol:

So some technical stuff: I have no idea how long this took. Not that long really. I used a mech pencil (some cheap thing which broke down during the last bits of braid I had to draw lol :lol: ), normal wooden Hb pencil for sketching, more darker (up and until 8B, though I didn't use everything in that range) for the dark parts, 3H for her skin and my coloured pencils for her iris. The drawing is on an A4 paper. NO REFS USED. At all. She's all mine ;)

Ps. 1: The contest lasts till march 31, so after that, vote for mee!
Ps. 2: I found some news article on those codes, I finally know how to use them weeh! [link] :la:

:love:
