Jeanine Henderson—Without Love

I've always loved to use quotes as illustration inspiration, and actually did a project last year that I collected lots of quotes on love for.  I always liked this Swedish proverb: "A life without love is like a year without summer" but never got around to illustrating it. It came to mind as I was walking home in the cold tonight. I pulled out my charcoal pencils for this sketch—which I haven't seen much of since my art school days!
