Such a simple form, but still so artsy. The lines feel almost like cut out bits from a notebook... but it's not is it? Just giving that impression? A natural form with creative twist, and the darkness alternating with the lines too, like two different sides to the same character. Looking good. Thinking maybe this one would count for as a sketch than 'for the portal', though. Standards therein are pretty high. Nice work though.
