Monolithic update
Pencil on Illustration Board

Full drawing 30” x 40” this image 7” x 7”

This is the Second element in this drawing, the sky and bulb being the first.

This is a drawing of my step-fathers eye. An eye that’s seventy-eight years old, an eye akin to hammered gold. An eye that’s experienced prisoner of war camps and the death of many comrades. It’s been witness to beating cancer once and now in the dusk of his years to lung cancer. This symbol speaks of strength and vulnerability; it alludes to the end of one journey and the beginning of another.

(On December 5, 2005 my dear step-dad died in my arms, I will miss him so very much, Gods Speed to you Dad, and all my love always). Armin Mersmann

Thanks for looking

That is just simply amazing. I keep looking for any hint that will give this away as a pencil drawing, some...imperfection, and I can't find any. Not a single one. I mean, you've got every pore on his face, and god, his eyebrows. His eyelashes.

You are the most amazing artist I've ever seen.

This is so incredible. All the detail is amazing. I'm glad you added the size in the description. That helps me to envision it better. Your skills will never cease to amaze me and be an inspiration for me. Thanks for sharing! =)

98% of the teenage population are not emo. If you're of the 2% that is, shut the fuck up.
