ART EXPLOSION WEEK 29: Theme AWAKENING. The awakening of the soul

Hello steem! Today i would like to take part in one interesting contest

This is my picture.

In my drawing, awakening is rather an abstract concept, such as awakening the soul after a long dream. The color background around the girl is a state of mind, where the sun suddenly glanced among the gloomy dullness, as a symbol of liberation from the shackles of long sleep.
I drew with markers.

A few steps of the drawing.
Drew in pencil, traced over it with a liner.Erased extra lines.

With the help of a thick rod marker applied squares, gradually filling the background.

Painted with brown marker a stone on which the girl reclines.

Painted over the background completely with different shades of colors. Showed the movement of the light.

I decided not to paint girl in natural colors, making it look like a person. The girl in this picture is a soul, a kind of air and abstract substance. So I left it white, causing only the incident light patches in yellow and grey shadows.

Fixed a few bugs with the white gel pen. That's all!

Process.

Sorry for my poor English. I have not practice for a long time.
