For this piece I just wanted to have fun, and make some studies of snakes and portrait, so Medusa was a perfect figure to paint. "Medusa was a monster, one of the Gorgon sisters and daughter of Phorkys and Keto, the children of Gaea (Earth) and Oceanus (Ocean). She had the face of an ugly woman with snakes instead of hair; anyone who looked into her eyes was immediately turned to stone. She was originally a golden-haired, fair maiden, who, as a priestess of Athena, was devoted to a life of celibacy; however, after being wooed by Poseidon and falling for him, she forgot her vows and married him. For this offence, she was punished by the goddess in a most terrible manner. Each wavy lock of the beautiful hair that had charmed her husband was changed into a venomous snake; her once gentle, love-inspiring eyes turned into blood-shot, furious orbs, which excited fear and disgust in the mind of the onlooker."

I cant say that this drawing was inspired in the BTS song "the truth untold" because I made the drawing before the song was released, but I feel that it somehow fits with the sentiment. th emain character is a lonely guy hidding in a garden, thinging and worring about the love he wont share till is too late. I love the song so much! It really suit their voices I started the sketch with a red Prismacolor erasable colored pencil, then outlined it with Sakura Micron markers and scaned it, and added the color using Photoshop CC. Hope you like the video!!
A watercolor studio practice I made last night, I'm really into watercolor portraits and I want to improve my skills. I kind of failed with the moths in watercolors but I tried to fix it with golden paint markers, I think it looks better.
