Week #41

Well, this drawing has been giving me nothing but trouble.  I could have left him undone and started a new drawing for this week, but I really really wanted to finish him.  I like this drawing a lot - and after my project is finished in January, I'll do this one again - and include the chair, etc.  His hand looks a little small, but it is back quite far and maybe looks a little odd because its out of context a bit.  At any rate, I LOVED doing this drawing!  I think its my all time favorite. 

Oh - and my computer got stubborn this morning when I turned it on, and it took 6hrs to fix.  I now have to re-sign in all my accounts, and of course that isn't going well either!!  Grrrr.  Anyhow.... back to the late drawing....

The man who liked ghosts

So this is Kelly again, the fellow I met in BC when I was down there lately.  He likes ghosts, and is wearing a ghost (or skeleton?) mask - not because its October - but because he likes to - just like he likes to wear a yoyo on his cap, and he likes to wear one glove etc.  But that's a story for another day.

The only thing I added here, was the dandelion fluffy, because I wanted him to be holding something that curved around.  Once I put it in - I realized it was such a good choice, because the ghost mask looks like its maybe either taking control of his puff ball (ie: controlling his wishes) or its blowing it out (ie: stealing his wishes).  So I'm pretty smitten with the design and the story one can make out of it!  I think that's why this is my favorite.  I will have a lot of fun doing him again.  But I've got to get busy on "this week's drawing" now... and also get this crazy computer in working order.
