This Way, This Way























What happens when you sneak into a fairy garden...

This was a really old sketch that I decided to color to test out my new set of 24 Faber-Castell Polychromos. They aren't as creamy as Prismacolors, but I like the colors. It took a lot of pressure for me to get shadows with these pencils, but they make such beautiful, crisp lines. They also erase well and sharpen to a VERY fine point really easily. I think I might try mixing them with creamier pencils in the future, or maybe using them with markers.

Grace























Practice.

Grace was the working title (I had to save it as SOMETHING, and I have so many doodles named "girl 1" "girl 2" that it gets very confusing). She was originally in a ball gown and had a very long, graceful neck and very fancy hair piled on top of her head, and the name Grace was very fitting. Then she turned into a girl in a t-shirt with a pony-tail. Then she turned into Disney's Belle. Then she turned into this. Since I can never think of titles, this is still called Grace.
