Gypsy Whimsy

Gypsy Whimsy
5.5" x 8.5" 
colored pencil on toned paper


I'll just save all that HOLY COW IT'S BEEN SO LONG SINCE I LAST POSTED blah blah blah and jump straight to the point. :)

I'm still drawing. A lot. It will always be something I have to do. I just love it so much. 

And I've been finding a lot of satisfaction, and joy, in drawing more whimsically. . . More illustrative I guess. I no longer am a slave to a photo reference and I LOVE that. While part of me still sometimes misses getting lost in realism, for now I'm very happy to be drawing this way. 

Thanks for sticking with me for so long CCA fans. I sure appreciate your support.I still have this omnipresent itch to get those watercolors out. . . But just haven't made myself do it yet. But one day soon I will!

    And in other pics you can observe two more bridesmaids, one wearing this wedding dresses and something wearing that one.

    All the ladies' burgundy bridesmaid dresses were within the collection's Blush color, so that they match perfectly. And they all are less expensive than $180, causing them to be even more awesome in my book.
