Anna dressed in blood

Hi! I completely forgot this app existed!
Sooo I've decided to draw scenes from books i have in my shelf to add to my portfolio, and this one is from "Anna dressed in blood". The scene reads as follows:

"I pull my knife out of my backpack and slide it free. My father left our house one afternoon carrying this knife, just like he had since before I was born. And he never came back. Something got the best of him. The police came a day later, after my mother reported him missing. They said that my father was dead. I skulked in the shadows while they questioned my mother and eventually the detective whispered his secrets: that my father’s body had been covered in bites; that chunks of him had been missing. For months my father’s gruesome death plagued my thoughts. I imagined it in every possible way. I dreamed of it. I drew it on paper with black pen and red crayon, stick skeleton figures and waxy blood. My mother tried to heal me; singing constantly and leaving the lights on, trying to keep me out of the dark. But the visions and nightmares didn’t stop until the day I picked up the knife. They never caught my father’s killer, of course. Because my father’s killer was already dead. So I know what it is that I’m meant to do. Looking up at Anna’s house now, I’m not afraid, because Anna Korlov is not my end. Someday, I’m going back to the place where my father died, and I’m going to drag his knife across the mouth of the thing that ate him."

I'm kinda proud of how this turned out, ngl! Still working a bit on the mood and vibe but I hope you guys like it too 🖤

Honestly this is so beautiful it could easily be a book cover so reading it was inspired by a book just makes it even better!
