Emotions Made of Ivory and Steel

I cannot even begin to tell you how much work I put into this @_@

I am entering this in the Congressional Art Contest (but I never win art contests to I'm not counting on anything -_-), so literally everything in this digital painting has to be original. I am not even kidding you I lined all the sheet music and scribbled notes and pseudo-music junk on the sheets. lol not too shabby for someone who doesn't read music. I hate the rug but I finished at like 3 am so at that point I was pretty much over it haha. Wood grain texture on the piano = death. I strated regretting drawing all the details once I had to color them all in, like all the pens and chip bag *_* The PERSPECTIVE MADE ME WANT TO COMMIT SUICIDE. I redrew the piano sooooo many times; I am glad I used my own upright as reference so I had SOMETHING to look ah ahhhhsdjfhsdkjfhadsgjadfasd. And for the love of waffles when I was done I just paint-bucketed in the black BG so whatever. Tried to make my handwriting look remotely nice for the text.
