Fear of the Clock

So this is a piece I made for my art class. It's pretty big, about 2 feet long and about a foot tall I think and made with graphite.
My friend Nick and I came up with the name "Fear of the Clock" because I was drawing it when I was with him and couldn't think of a background I wanted for the figure in the front. Then he came up with the idea of the grandfather clock so I put that in the background and we thought it looked kind of ominous. So then we were thinking there could be a deep meaning behind it as in the person is afraid of running out of time and getting older and came up with the title "Fear of the Clock" based on the song "Fear of the Dark" by Iron Maiden. Some other titles would be "Face Time" "Face the Clock" something along those lines. But yeah I'm happy with it.

That looks very nice, it has some very nice depth to it aswell as lighting.

Very nice, looks like you put a lot of work into it. suggestion, the person's hair looks a little too high on their head. there isn't quite enough detail on the shirt, it's a little too homogeneous. other than those two things it looks really good.

What a neat concept and perspective! You did a great job shading, but I think the shadows on the arm and the body are a little too bold compared to the rest of the drawing. Maybe you could increase the shadows on everything else so it looks more even? Anyway, I like it a lot.
