The Wolf You Feed

Yet again, another conceptual piece for the Scribble Skirmish blog. The theme this time was "fear" and my piece is very personal and true to my feelings. So I took my time, (moreso than usual) but still wasn't able to give 100%  due to time restrictions. So I had to cut some corners. Mostly with lighting and background. And it's STILL late even though we extended the deadlines to two weeks per submission. Oh well... The devil's in the details.

Her facial expression, the way you can see the sadness and how she's looking away but she's not pulling her body away and yet you can see it's over even as he's leaning in and the reluctance and just the amount of emotion being shown even though there's no tears.

Just wow.

Like, I saw it when you posted originally but then I felt like an ass trying to analyse it but I keep coming back to it and even though you weren't able to give it 100% I think it's beautiful and I really got a lot from it.
