Well, this was probably the most difficult drawing I have ever embarked on... I really can't begin to put into words what this drawing means. It represents so much, the symbolism of the butterflies as my little guardians - the people who're there for you through the highs and lows (most importantly the lows). One day I will look at this without cringing.

Great work on this one! Her hair, face and expression are drawn damn good, but I'm not pretty sure about butterflies. I can't say if they would be better if drawn more realistically, but as they are now, they attract attention a lot. So if it was meant to be this way, I have no further attempts to be constructive . (on the other side, they look like someone else drew them, and it creates a very undefined feeling in me(in a positive way of course))

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
