This is a drawing using the pretty and unique looking Debbie. I used her as model for my Dark Fairy at the beginning of the year as well. I really like her bright green eyes and her cute freckles, it adds something special. I feel the drawing has a bit of a melancholic feel. Perhaps the feel of summer slowly slipping away, a small breeze playing with her hair.

I was trying out some different paper, which is grainier. The colours acts a little different and some areas are harder to create. I also wanted to try and new hair nuance which I haven't used that often. Though technically this isn't my best piece I feel rather happy with it. I wanted to keep the colours neutral and not too contrasted in the shading.
I really like this dimension, I wanted to try something new size wise. I always had a thing for long thin paintings but rarely do it with my drawings.

Made with soft pastels.
