Piercing Heart

I used Prisma Color color pencils on Stonehenge paper. I don't use any erasers or blending sticks. I layer the pencil strokes until it is the effect I'm trying to aim for. I am mainly self taught, and am always looking for improvements and critical advice. I carry a copy of the Bargue Drawing Course with me at all times, and find it encouraging.


Piercing Heart was inspired by scripture. Luke 2:34-35 speaks of God opening the peoples hearts and revealing them like a sword piercing their hearts.
For our rewards are laid up for us in Heaven. They may pry our Bibles from our homes and imprison us but they can not touch what they so despirately long for, our Salvation.
