Lenses

Reflections are a pain. Reflections off a pair of glasses is a triple pain. I'll have to go back to the first page and change my lenses.

First Shadows

I finished the base colors for the second page. Now, I'm adding the preliminary shadows. I forgot the highlights--that'll be after the shadows.

Coming Back Slowly

I'm trying to get back into the swing of daily blogging. It helps to keep my entries short. I continue to work on adding color to page two. Gosh, I love coloring!

Sick

It's been a while since my last posting. I've been experiencing flu-like symptoms which I think are really a result of the wild yam cream I'd been applying for hot flashes. The mock "morning sickness" just might be the progesterone in the cream.

So, today is the first in several days during which I worked on the graphic novel. This page traces my interest in drawing to my big sister.

Enjoyment

I'm having a marvelous time coloring the second page (still). I finished the plaid, and I think it looks good. I discovered on Photoshop how I can get just the right color I need. 

I realize that I have no idea how long it's gonna take for me to finish this graphic novel. And as of now, I don't really care; I'm enjoying this process so much right now.

Plaid

Took a day or two off. Still working on the second page! Right now, I'm working on my sister's plaid dress.

Long Time

I'm amazed at how long it takes for me to color one page! It takes about 3-4 days! It's very enjoyable, but dang!
