Your use of the negative space to balance out the positive is really wonderful.

Thanks. I always have to keep that in mind while drawing. I tend to overwork if I'm not careful.

This is really cool. I immediately felt like going and sitting on the couch with some mellow music going and reading a book :D

I would fave it, but I think it needs some levels adjustment. It's too pale :(

Well, it's a graphite drawing, so it is pale. Also purposely blew out the detail at the feet, to give the illusion of bright sunlight. Glad you like it.

Yeah, I get the blown out parts. That's not what I meant. I meant that, compared to most of your other drawings, this one lacks the digital "fixing" that most drawings should go through when scanned/photographed. It depicts how the camera sees it, not how the eye sees it. It just lacks depth, but I know the original drawing has depth. I just think this lets the original drawing down. Know what I mean?
