Still have to color it, but this is going to be a print I'm gonna sell at Connecticon. I have a few things in here I really want to touch up a bit further, but all in all I'm actually pretty happy with how this came out.

The idea for this came from a Daniel Johnston song "Wicked World" that goes "We paint ourselves as our bodies star to decay" I always really dug that line. I'd actually started a painting based upon it years ago but never got around to finishing it. This I'm hoping to have colored by Friday.

And admittedly, this: [link] is where I heard the song first, and Osaka Popstar where actually how I initially was introduced to Daniel Johnston!

Thanks!! Oddly enough, the hardest thing to draw was her jewelry. That necklace made my hand cramp.

for a minute i thought maybe youd used a brush to put that in but the detail on that is too sharp :3 you really did a great job on it

Haha..actually I did, all of that is done with a brush pen. the only part I used a pen for was the contour of her face and the brush she's holding.
