Black and Blue

As an artist self studies are important. They allow you to do something that you don't even rarely notice yours doing when you draw. By the colors and style in which you draw you can tell a lot about the artists emotional state. It's no mystery that i've been a little down as of lately. Money worries compounded with unhappiness at work has left me depressed to say the least. I haven't been my normal jumping up for joy and running around joking self. I have flashes of happiness but they are just that. So i took a pic last week that i wanted to stretch and elongate to show my state. Between our morning manager meeting and closing i drew this at Panera.
