This is a large painting done using unconventional methods... The assignment given by my professor was to take an object not normally used to make art, dip it in watered-down acrylic paint (?), and then draw with it.
So I took the apartment key out of my pocket and went all-out.
It actually turned out super awesome, considering that there was no pencil sketch beforehand. I screwed up in places but managed to cover it up by gouging and darkening certain areas.
I was thinking of the title "Skeleton Key" because I'm super uncreative. But decided against it.
The reference skeleton is named Zelda, apparently. She has a last name, too, but nobody seems to know it. (Is it just me, or do all art skeletons seem to be female? Why is this? I prefer drawing men. XD)

Pardon the quality. Had to photograph this one.
Note: This is remarkably popular for some reason and I honestly have no idea why. X'D I wasn't even going to post it. Maybe I shouldn't second-guess myself so often when I want to upload something to this site...

And really? All female? I've mainly met male ones :U
I also had a fear of reference skeletons when I was little and we had one in our classroom.
Skellymens are so much fun to draw! More so than random pots and buckets. I hate my drawing class. X'D
Hurr, we had to draw a tricycle in mine :U
Hey, your right! At least you can draw something that's female! Skeletons!
