So I've had this image vaguely in mind for a while now, but when it finally became clear enough I decided to go ahead and draw it. Once I started drawing it though, the image changed. I decided to draw her trapped, captured, unable to do what she wants. A lot like artists nowadays. There is so much complaining on all sides about what people draw that a lot of artists are pressured into changing their styles or the content of their drawings just to please others (or to avoid criticism).

Anyway, I tried a lot of new techniques with this picture, and it came out a bit strange, but I like the direction it took, and I want to try to work on and refine the techniques I used here. I was going to wait til after I finished posting my otakon pictures, but I decided to go ahead and put this up now that I finished it. I hope you like how it turned out
