I love how John is in a perpetual state of frustration and being 50000% done with Sherlock

Absinthe Sherlock
For Let’s Draw Sherlock, based off of the Absinthe Robette poster by Henri Privat-Livemont (one of my favorite pieces of art in existence, and the fact that it was made as an advertisement doesn’t detract from its value at all, in my opinion.) I couldn’t not attempt this image. Bonus - tiny John and that sneaky wallpaper! This was somehow both the most tedious and most enjoyable thing I’ve drawn in a long time!

It breaks my heart to represent the toll Holmes’ drug use takes on him — how he’s so skinny he looks like he’s nothing but corners, how his eyes look like bruises on a skull — but even more bittersweet is how absolutely unaffected Watson is by his appearance. He doesn’t shy away because he knows everything else that Holmes is.
Oh, and because it’s a little tricky to see, here’s Watson’s notes.
