Lonely

A quick drawing made at 4:30 AM while suffering from boredom and an upset tummy.
Just started out drawing with no real plans, and ended up with this. I'm really pleased with the girls expression and hair. :)

I keep thinking of her as an Emily, though I can't fathom why...

The Final Scene in Shakespeare's Hamlet

A recent painting I made of one of the most tragically enthralling episodes of literature ever made.

Here's the Run-down:

Claudius (who killed his brother the king so that he could obtain the throne and marry his brother's wife) hatches an evil scheme with Laertes to kill prince Hamlet (who's father was killed in cold blood and his sister driven to suicide by said prince). Laertes challenges Hamlet to a fencing match and plans to kill him by cutting him with a poisoned blade, and Claudius poisons a cup of wine that he plans to give to Hamlet to insure his demise. The duel commences and Laertes isn't able to land a single blow, while queen Gertrude, Hamlet's mother, is accidently murdered by Claudius by unknowingly drinking the poisoned wine (seriously, does Claudius have ANY common sense!? I mean, he left the friggin' cup out the open that any person could pick up and drink! What an AR-TARD!). When Gertrude succumbs to the poison and falls out of her chair, Laertes uses this brief moment of distraction to cut Hamlet with the poison blade. Hamlet then lashes out and knocks both blades to the ground, picking up Laertes's blade and cutting him with it. Laertes then tells Hamlet in his dying moments that Claudius had killed his mother and that Hamlet killed him and he killed Hamlet (kill kill kill kill kill). Hamlet then stabs Claudius with the poison blade and forces the poisoned wine down his throat in a fit of rage, then dies, concluding the play.

It's a man-slaughter of epic, Jerry Springer proportions.

Sketch

Pastel pencil sketch using chiaroscuro technique that I've been studying. Reference was the cover of a Waylon Jennings album (Essential Waylon). Spending a lot of time working on my drawing skills so I can move into oils.
