Prove yourself as the best artist for the week

‎Hello my fellow steemians! I hope you are having a great weekend. Happy new week to you. My dear members of steem fashion&style. I am here to share my most recent realistic charcy pencil drawing piece I did for this competition/contest. This job took me hours because I actually want it to be one of my best for this competition. I also want to use this opportunity to thank @dequeen for organizing this amazing contest. However I hope to do my best as one of the great artist in this platform. Thank you as you go through my artwork.

‎Here are the steps on how I did the artwork.
‎
‎Being a content writer is almost the same thing as being a content creator. Both is similar because you have to be creative to be any of it. Creativity comes from logical thinking and reasoning. It's not even about being creative as a content creator or content writer, artist are also creative individuals. They make something out of nothing. It is not difficult for an artist to think outside the box. Artist are critical thinkers with widen horizon of imagination which could be brought to life or reality.

‎Where I got my inspiration
‎
‎As an artist with so many years of experience I have learned that inspiration can come at any moment. In this case every time I pick up my drawing materials and plug my ears with some rap music then inspiration will start flowing. Since this was a client's job I couldn't write my username and date at the top of the paper. However, I have reasonable proves to post this artwork as mine. Every time I draw I feel I need to improve. I'm always hungry for more. That's how I get inspired.
