A Place To Escape


I only meant to sit down for a minute, just to practice drawing heads (I'm taking the Suzi Blu 'Les Petite Dolls' class). But, with the music playing and my color pencils just begging me to stay, I let the stress of the day melt away and slipped deep into my own world at last.

It's ok if her head is freakishly large...this is folk art!

The gold? Sooo easy. Take a paint brush dipped in gel medium, then dip it into a bag of gold leaf and smear it around.
