Unspeakable Fear

There’s a darkness inside of me these days that is only hurting myself and I wonder what it means to do. It terrifies me. I’m starting to see it over my right shoulder. What can I do?

When looking at this face I have to wonder if this story of fear isn’t a cover story to get my attention. Something about the way the eyes are looking sideways and the hands are in front of the mouth gives me reason to wonder if he isn’t hiding a smirk. Whatever, I have nothing better to do right now, I’ll bite.

I fully intended to keep this one in black and white, with only colours in the background. This is one of those times I really love my blending pencil and how it keeps colours from other drawings and blends them into the drawing I am working on now. It helped me show that the figure is living in the background by adding colours from it .
