Finished with my 31 day drawing challenge!

   Adrienne Barbeau as Maggie from Escape From New York. 

I'm finally finished with my 31 day drawing challenge.   For a whole month I dedicated one to two hours a day to drawing/painting/sketching a girl.  It was hard work and time consuming, but in the end I feel that it paid off.   I feel a lot better about my drawing ability and I was able to get some ideas down on paper that had been occupying my brain for a while.  This isn't the end though!  I'm going to be taking a mini vacation from the blog but I'll be back posting more drawings on Friday.  I haven't decided what drawing challenge I'll do next.  Maybe random drawings, mini-comics, guinea pigs, or sexy starlets from sci-fi/horror films.  I still have to finish working on my mini-comic that I'll be submitting to Comic Con and I'll be starting my Maya Springboard Class the last week of September.  Yep, I'm going to be busy!

Almost done!

I didn't have any internet connection on Sunday so I wasn't able to post my image.   I was trying to use my phone, but for some reason the image wasn't downloading.

I didn't like the overall drawing so I cropped a section of it.  It looks better cropped.

70's girl

I wasn't planning on posting this image.  I had started the final one on watercolor paper, but I just couldn't capture the same stance that I had in the sketchbook.  So I ended up touching up the drawing in my sketchbook.  I like how the girl came out, except for the pee like background. 

I've been drawing a lot of girls from the 20's and 50's photos and I decided to go ahead and tread into the 70's.  The last one I had done was the Shelly Duvall drawing.   Here is the photo that I used for reference.
