When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Artist's Comments
Mutti is a german term of affection for mother - aka "mummy". I thought that would be a sweet title
 This is my mum - it was a gift for her birthday, and is done completely in 2H mechanical pencil and 6B pure graphite. It's taken me ages to get a decent picture of it thoguh (with regards to lighting). This was the best I have, though still required a lot of cleaning up!!! It's a portrait of my mum from when I was a baby - I drew it using a photo reference which I'll submit to my scraps <3 You can find the photo ref here: [link] So, this took about 10 hours to do, over the space of about 3-4 weeks (it was exactly 3 or 4 weeks, I forget which  ), and I was glad to finish it. For my first pencil realism portrait, I actually think I did a really good job - which I dont say often! ^^ I made lots of mistakes, yes, but with practice I can only improve, and I'm still happy with the end result  Everyone who has seen it in real life has been really impressed with it, commented how alike it and the reference photo look, and also how like my mum I look  So I'm happy its got so much approval - I hope you guys like it so much too ^^Anyway~ Enjoy, I'll leave it at that   |

My hovercraft is full of eels.
I think I'll have to try and get a bit of a better photo though (the lights gone again, its chucking it down lol, so there that idea fgoes for another week lol), because it just looks so indisctinct and blurry... the real thing is ten times more fresh and sharp.. D:
