I saw a picture and followed it to help with the outline, then after that I went with what was in my mind about colours, lines, shadows, details. This picture really resonates with me.

To me it means hard work and rough times, you have to work for what you want and there will always be barriers and things/people trying to bring you down. Some people wear their hard work and rough times on the outside but all of us wear it on the inside.
