Sketchbook Challenge: Highly Prized

I'm participating in The Sketchbook Challenge hosted on their blog with a monthly theme. This month's theme was highly prized. I worked on this drawing for a week and a half at least. It's helped me also stick to my resolution t0 draw and craft more!

I started with the heart in the open cage because it symbolizes to me the most highly prized thing of all which is the freedom I have and I'm continually gaining as I overcome things from my past to become a stronger person. I used the words in the background to touch on the things and people who have supported me and helped me grow along the way :).

Check out the challenge!
