Cajun Queen
I love the exotic women with unusual powers that made up the legends of the bayou - to me this cajun queen is a fantasy figure worth exploring.
Draw your own fantasy or copy mine - either way - draw.
In fact when I think of the wonderful stories that can be written about this kind of character.
I guess the bayou excites my imagination, because it is so foreign to me.
It is full of wonderful myth and creepy crawly natural creatues that just fascinate my imagination.
This first lady of the bayou fills my mind with intrigue.
Even that sentence conjures up wonderful images, and I can't wait to get my pencil going.
A Tattooed Beauty
She is tall and slender, walking among the bogs and mist of the deep bayou.
I can smell the herbs and anticipate the magic that she carries within that little bag flung over her hip.
She has her hand in her pocket obviously ready to distribute some magic dust.
Be wary... tread carefully this woman has power.
Feel your power as you practice your drawing getting stronger and stronger.
Here Is A Close Up
When drawing the face, remember that you are creating high-lights and low-lights, sculpting the shapes of her face.
Feel free when drawing hair, try different textures to create hair.
I am really working on some new books, and some new pages that are free all around faces, and hair, and clothing.
Feel free to subscribe to my free e-zine in order to be informed when these new things are ready.
