just for fun (and practice)
a digitalization of the original, which can be found under the mixed media tab. i think i prefer this one, even though the watercolor version won a bunch of awards or whatever.
it’s amazing what a girl can create with 20 vintage national geographic magazines, some scissors, and a scanner. i really like collages. i don’t know why i ever stopped making them.
this is actually based on a photo of me, but i think i look much better as a nondescript minimalistic illustration.
i think i prefer the original sketch. it captures the gloom of that day far better. it’s under the mixed media tab.
this is another digital rendition of a lovely sketch, but i really like this one. the original is on the mixed media tab, of course.
i can’t tell if this version adds to the image or takes away from it. i think the simplicity and blocks of colors add a childlike feel to it, which i enjoy.
