viva la painting!
I am tired, hungry and drained of all energy. Have been working twelve hours straight today with the exeption of a small break for some soup at midday. I did my writing and then sat down in my studio for some much needed painting as I was getting withdrawal symptoms...I needed to smell the combination of gouache and watercolour paper...enough sketching.
I did this small illustration, a visualized version of a scene in the book I am writing (which will not be illustrated). I am struggling with my voice as it is pulling me in every direction but up.
This style does still need a lot of work to evolve but at the moment, I am too tired to think about that. I am just happy that I actually did some painting this afternoon. :)

I love the HUGE skirts, and very much like the way that you draw people.
