The Sin that Binds Her

Yay! I finally finished it~
:boogie:

I hope the semi-religious theme doesn't kill the art for you.
This piece actually came about by accident.

I was trying to get a little inspiration from a beautiful song by Nightwish called: While Your Lips are Still Red
But when I tried to draw something, this came out. I was very....suprised. But I do like how it came out. Recently, I've found that I'm beggining to like my work more and more. It really makes me want to draw 24/7.

Anyway, about this picture....
There's a girl. And the blue-ish purple stuff around her hands and arms is "sin."
She's trying to break free from it, but isn't doing so well, making her sad.

The windowpane-type things around her are ment to show that sin can creep in at all angles, and in places one would never expect to see it.

Also, this is meant to be a grayscale piece (got that wonderful idea from my mom). Sorry if the greys blended badly. It's my first black and white pice. I'm not very good at photoshop, so that's why I did the greys by hand. The random bits of color are for dramatic affect.

I hope you like it! Any tips or critiques would be SUPER helpful!!

Okay, Shelby, I can honestly not believe that you drew this. You might as well have told me that "Stephenie Meyer" is your pen name and you actually wrote Twilight. That's how freaking amazing this is to me. So talented!!
