Keeping Pace With Planes

OKAY so its finished
I spent about......6 hours on it.
I drew on the WAY to college, IN college, WAITING for the train home, and then AGAIN waiting on my bus lol.

Title's from 'Keeping Pace With Planes' by Conditions.
The whole thing's based on the chorus line:

"The closest thing to me at heart is the furthest thing away to touch,
And all these undeservers take for granted what we deserve so much"

Really brings it all home for me these days.

F, 2B, 4B & 8B pencils on A3 sketchbook.


I WASSS going to put an insane amount of detail into the hand creases but I feel it would take away the mood of the piece itself so I left it more baisic. I wanted to create a sense of depth with the dark shading on the outside.
COMMENTS APPRECIATED!
