I was tempted to call this post Manga Mama…but it’s a little too slangy for me!
I was wanting to sketch, but in a colorful way… not in a gray way!
While in Florida last month we came upon a bunch of vendors as we made our way to the beer tent. This cover-up caught my eye! Must’ve been the bling! The booth peddler was kind enough to let me try this on. The skirt appeals to the gypsy in me! I think my friend would’ve bought one for her grand-daughter if she only had her wallet with her.
I spotted this picture on flickr that I had to replicate! Just plain fun!
I opted out of coloring in the background the manual way and instead used photoshop to render some clouds. A little more appealing without all that stark white. I used watercolor pencils for the hair, skirt and frame. My favorite markers for the rest.
Again….can’t seem to tilt heads today! Ahhh well, I wasn’t aiming for perfection anyway!
Happy Thursday everyone :)
