This one was a stydy in depth, light and shadow.

The name comes from “Te tua, me delectant mea” which translates to “You are charmed with yours, I with mine” and is a nod to the themes I described in №0 "The Lost Joy of Drawing" 2020-2021.

“He was in fact we hear an enthusiastic musician, a tragic poet too—how good, matters little; for in this art, more than in others, it somehow happens that everyone finds his own work excellent; so far I have never known the poet who did not think himself the best; this is the way with them—“You are charmed with your work, I with mine”. Cicero, Tusculan Disputations

I wanted to change up the style a bit with stronger colors and higher contrast.

Tried to bring out the shape more with the markers and less with the pencils. And, I do like how the light effect turned out, as I really wanted to convey the brightness and the warmth of the sun against skin.
