Did this five years ago. (Yea it's DG sourced colored pencils, so what 🙃)
It was a shitty time then, and a friend I hadn't seen in years had stuck with me and saw me through it.

This piece really came from a dream, the hug I needed. The hug I wanted and wanted to do.
Also when I finally got to see and figure out my own colors. Finally.

Other parts of anatomy and placement I wanted to not muck up too bad, but the whole damn point kinda was that the arms wound up like a tangled mess of spaghetti, fully wrapping around multiple laps around.

"what about arm placement?" YES

What a hug should feel like... The hug ya really need. When you really f<3cking need it
