This is my first submission to the Challenge of the Month by Draw With Jazza, which is reason #1 why I've decided to participate in the beginners contest. The more obvious reason is that I am not a master and do not stand a chance against the amazing artists that participate in this challenge. I have been drawing for my whole life but still consider myself just an intermediate. I struggle to expand beyond sketches and this is actually my first inked lineart and colored pencil piece. I have done some basic linearts but have never attempted to color a traditonal piece and I'm very happy with how this turned out. I used a mechanical pencil for sketching, a nice pen for lineart, and about 5 colored pencils? Let's see, there was a green, purple, pink, red, blue, grey... okay so 6. I was too scared to try and come up with a background so I left it the way you see it. Okay I will stop talking now and get my WIP link in here:

there it is, okay. Thank you Jazza for doing these awesome competitions and I'm so excited(but kinda nervous) to participate for the first time!
