What's your Mona Lisa?
Every artist has an art piece they consider to be their "Mona Lisa." This is my Mona Lisa. I drew it back in 2011 when my wife and I lived in a room. It was hard to make ends meet since the Orlando job market hit rock bottom. It was around 3 AM and I couldn't sleep. I took out all my art supplies, set up my work station near the bed, and starting drawing. I poured my heart out on the paper.
Yes, there's a lot of things I'd do differently. I would've added more details around the bed and make her hair darker with my the experience I have today, but then it wouldn't have described what I was feeling that night. I drew her face carefully and made sure every line was a perfect silhouette. What's your Mona Lisa?
