Illustration Friday: Smitten


This is a sketch from my sketchbook colored in photoshop. Young girl...in love...smitten. You'll have to imagine your own pimple-faced boy she's thinking of. Or maybe Guy Francis can draw one up. Guy?

  6. Love to see this linework treated with an 'Ernest Shepard' touch. Lighter and just a tad scratchy and colored in pastels. The puppy and her face really have a classic look to them.
