Been a long time since I've had empty canvases in front of me. Usually I endlessly add, remove & cover up on a canvas (sometimes for years) before I come to a point where I actually believe it to be "finished". I plan on making some major changes to her before she is done, such as using charcoal to darken her up a bit & then applying paint around her, sort of in a dragging effect to make the background look smoky & a bit more textured.

Hopefully I'll be able to work on her some more this afternoon & have more progress pics to share. Hope everyone's Sunday is beautiful!

RedBubble - New Work Added

 

I've been a member of RedBubble for a long time but have neglected the account ;o(

I've added some new work this morning so if you'd like, go check it out!

I Adore Thee

IF - Round

It always helps to have a round belly when you're wicked. This "thing" has been in my head for a few days. Not sure why. But I pictured her waddling along, her long clawed fingers scraping her knees. Even though she should be scary, I don't find her scary at all. I find her quite funny ;o)

Winter

An older illustration but it fit my "winter white" mood today.

IF - Vanity

For Illustration Friday. This is an older illustration but it fit pretty much perfectly into the prompt! I need to do more work with pen, I've been missing the look of it. 

Haunting

IF - Stripes

Illustration Friday - Stripes
