Description
size: 40x40cm (~16x16"); done on A2 185g/m² paper (download should be the original size ~1200x1200px)I picked the title "Crying Inside", there was an (almost-) tie between this and "The Anxiety of Romance" and I somewhat prefered this more simple one
Thanks for the suggestions to:
and everyoneelse who suggested titles and voted
...the title "Crying Inside" was suggested by *kaledrub Thanks
I promised to provide some information on my technique on the finished drawing so this time I will name my tools and what I used them for
background: pure graphite powder applied with brushes, a small one to rub it in a little more for the dark parts and a big one to make more subtle greys.
foreground: ...I mean the blurry plant-part on the right, same as background only some parts were "drawn" with a dirty blending stump, that's stuffed with graphite
hair: pure graphite stick for the darks, 6B pencil and mechanical pencils for the details. Everything blended with the blending stump. Highlights and flyaway hairs done with a pencil-shaped eraser and a kneaded eraser
face: Drawn as usual with my 2B 0,5mm-mechanical pencil mainly, 6B for darkest parts.

Outstanding image. shallow depth of field gives real emphasis on the beautiful eyes.

this is beautiful~ the hair looks soo soft~
the only thing that I'd have to criticize is the eyes. i think the irises look a bit flat (might just be me), so maybe put the lines in it and have different shadings in them? just a suggestion it's a really beautiful piece

Can I say that that is beautiful??? I googled crying for no particular reason and scrolled down and this popped up. I clicked on it because I thought it was a picture from an old movie or something and I wanted to know who the actress was but then deviantart came up and I read the description and was all OO it's a drawing!!! I want steals on your talent, that's amazing.
