For my personal Christmas cards this year, if I can get around to getting them printed up and mailed in time, moving at the snail's pace I've been going this year! Played around with my box of blue magic from Kremer. I love these pigments!

Some of the sketches and in progress shots:

Sketchbook scribbles. Brainstorming.


More sketchbook brainstorming.


Playing with composition in photoshop, combined face and tilt of head and neck from one sketch with the attitude and pose of the body from another. I liked the movement that the diagonal from her arms created. The second figure felt too static. But her expression suited what I wanted.


Finalized transfer sketch.
