What am I doing now that they have granted me less hours at work? Practicing. Practicing skin and hair so I can put it on the naked one down below. Although now that I look at the one above...I should've at least given the poor girl some eyelashes. Or at least make up some background story of a rare vitamin deficiency that made her eyelashes fall out.
Working on the background for this lady and in doing so, I realized that my dark background is going to swallow up her rusty halo. What to do, what to do? A nimbus of light surrounding her? Isn't there a proper term for the glow of light that accompanies saints and angels and such? Also I just made a sketch of her. I never considered what color her gown and eyes should be....
And my least favorite thing to do-trying to get the proportions right in another drawing. And then my favorite thing to do-searching the internet for references for the beginning of another project.

A suggestion for the middle picture. A light glow under that metal piece you will be attaching might make it pop. And it looks like maybe her eyes are closed, I really like it that way, she looks like she is so peaceful. I like her hair too. : )
