Description: As I mentioned in my title on my Facebook page, this drawing concept took me about three hours using Paint Tool Sai. It's my interpretation on what betrayal looks like based on emotions and feelings or at least to me anyway. As you can see there is strain, depression, frustration, tension, sadness, anger, stress, and heartache. You know how they say that betrayal runs deep? Well, I think that's because when someone betrays you there is always this feeling that your heart has been ripped out from your chest at the same time a knife is stuck in your back. This is not going to be an easy concept to recreate, so if you do plan on tackling this tutorial on "how to draw betrayal", be sure to take your time as it will take time. Peace out and good luck.
