Dig it up oh oh, dig it

So for every hand assignment I've had..I've always wanted to draw a huge middle finger or picking my nose. Since the teacher straight up told us no middle finger allowed, I went for the other option. She wasn't thrilled of course, but warmed up to it after a week or two. So here is my original color study.

And she suggested that I add a background to it, so I kept with the humor element and made it so that everyone on the train would be swooning/pleased that I was diggin' for gold in a public space.

I got a pretty good critique on it, with a few minor things to tweak. But man, printing this out was an ordeal. Damn you technology.
