Silver by =sidneyeileen. I really wish I could come up with a description as incredible as this picture, but I can't. Nothing I can say will match how truly stunning this piece is.

Description

Diptych, each panel is 12"x18" black paper
Colored pencil
~20 hours of work

No prints. I had a very difficult time getting it to scan this well, and I debated not posting it at all because of the quality. Each panel required 4 scans, and you can see a ghosting on the edges of the paper because it couldn't lay flat.

This piece was inspired a couple months back, when I was at Half Moon Bay watching the moon over the ocean on a very cold fall night. I've been turning it over and over in my head, and this is what I finally came up with.

I am absolutely ecstatic with how the original turned out. I wish all of you could see it. This digital image really doesn't do it justice.

The digital is pretty freaking stunning, though.
