So I am not sure where this one came from, only that she was in my head one morning on a walk.
Some drawings just flow, and others just are stubborn and take more time to appear on the page - this one took three hours of sketching, erasing, and re sketching. She just didn't want to appear... and in my heart I don't think she is finished.
So I think I will put her away, for another time when I have had a chance to ponder what it is she needs.

Great illo! I think she looks sad because there's no pressie under the tree? Really like your blog - relate to your journey full-heartedly... :)
ReplyDeleteAEDM visitor - she has a very expressive face; maybe you just need to figure out what she's expressing? While the drawing looks complete to me, I know what it feels like to think there's just a little something missing. I'm sure when you add it, the drawing will be even better!
ReplyDeleteIt great the way it is and I so love those eyes!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe's gorgeous, and I feel the same way about Christmas this year.
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly how I am feeling about Christmas...
