I'll finish her one day...... I really mean it because I actually feel like the color scheme is something to work with. But I'm really loving how pencil feels on paper again so I've been drawing and painting in the sketchbook, getting better with every image with colors. I'm using Copic Markers and using the 'forced' small palette choice of colors. Not because I want but because I have I think 15 colors at the moment building my set slowly. I have prismacolors and they're great but it's something about Copic's texture that makes me feel like I'm still drawing. The double-sided two-edged marker makes it easy and efficient to getting an image done at the speed of thought.
I say all this to say once I feel the nature to come back to the computer (and I have felt those genes lately) I'm finishing this piece because I like where she's going. My painting will one day have all the bells and whistles I see when I start an image. The process is longer than drawing so I keep telling myself to have patience and work on the next page in the meantime. But a few years from now we'll all look back at this image and I hope to say it started then....
