I think I was thinking about someone who is not having a real good time. It is some kind of a portrait. Maybe these are self-portrait sometimes. I wanted to use a lot of contrasted colors in this picture, like the flowers growing around them.

I started with a pencil sketch. I did it in a coffee shop close to my place. Then I took a picture of it and started to paint over it in Photoshop. Using only two or three layers. I recently bought Kyle T. Webster brushes and i wanted to try it. I made the characters first, then i painted the dark background and the flowers.
