Worth it... 3 hours of back paining and eye straining totally worth it...

how many times do we get the feeling of doing something and then feel that its worth it. I like to sketch, well i am not any high profile sketching artist who takes surroundings and started drawing. but i like it. i just look up on internet and find the best ones and try to copy them and i feel that yes i can do that.
Yeah i can copy, but still haven't found originality it sucks sometimes, but maybe i am still in learning process. When i checked out that beautiful caged bird art on ghost stories cover i felt so inside that. "Man i gotta draw this".
I did the best i could do, and didn't allowed myself to do any mistake. and it turned out to be great.
I even thought of a great line for it...
We are free, yet caged... :)

 then i stared feeling that i should do something for my one of the worlds most favorite musicians and so i decided to make a silhouette painting and then that turned out to be this...

well its the hardest of all because you cant allow any mistake or its totally ruined. well i kind of have ruined the y there. :P but it feels so nice to draw something which is so meaningful for us. and i am sure i am gonna have this one with me forever. i might hung it in my room (Once i have a one). :)

then till the night i found another one, which was easy yet good. so at evening i draw that one.

 and finally i was still not satisfied that i wanted to draw those feather wings art, but it turned out to be so exquisite detail which i couldn't show in just a sketch. so i tried the beautiful butterfly instead and in between chats and reading i spend entire night working on it. and finished it at 3 a.m :D
and this is it.

the very thing i like about sketching is, just a little shade adds something so much to a simple drawing. it gives a depth which we want in it. it makes it beautiful just by a stroke. and you dont have to be any master or anything. well yes the originality, thats where all the point is. you can say something you drawn by yourself when you actually draw it without copying it. :) but still sketching will be the best of art i can do. i like when it glows with just a little brushing of black on surface. :) like magic dust of charcoal. its still beautiful. and now the last one which i originally draw with a photo of someone. well it turned out to be best in originality i can do. so here it is. :)

Well i wish someday i might be that practiced enough to sketch someone in front of me. Still i love whatever i draw cause it makes me beyond happy when i finally give it a final touch and i love it when i go through my old sketches. :)
so its totally worth it... the back paining due to leaning in to focus and eye straining to make no mistake. :)
and the last one when my friend gave it effects and it looks something entirely different i cant believe that i draw it...

eh? can you believe it? its the same drawing... :D 

so here's a one to great pleasure of doing something we love, even though no one admires it. :) well who cares. its for me...
