There is a mirror in front of my computer. I filled one monitor with red and thought the color on my face was interesting, so I decided to do a little color study of myself. Maybe I'll use it for my avatar. You can see I like to work in a dark room.
This has been on my hard drive for over a year now. It started out as an art challenge at the place I work - do something based on the nursery rhyme "Jack be Nimble". I knew what I wanted to do, but I kept going back and forth about the rabbit. At one point he was a very large and sinister character, but it didn't fit. I wanted him to be the turtle's peer, not a villain. Originally I planned on making it look hyper-real like a 3d render, but my motivation to finish this to that degree after a year's time is gone. Now I just want to get it out of the way, and move on to some of the images I'm more excited about finishing. Below is the line art I did. Hope you enjoy...
