Illustration Friday "Night"
The only time I have missed i-friday was when my daughter was sick. I am addicted in a big way. I was stumped for ideas on this one and when it finally did come to me, I realized it is almost too late.
So, I give you a sketch of my submission for night. Tune in tommorw when I will (hopefully) have posted the finished version. (And yes, that is a mark from the pud. ;) )
The denture drop was the highlight of spending the night at Grandma's house.
Here is the color version. Have you ever had a need to get the painting finished. one so strong that you keep pushing even though you know that you are painting crap or crap-ily? I have this often, the hubby has institued a rule that i have to allow a day in between drawing an image and painting it. But, ha, ha - he's at work so I plugged ahead even though I knew it was suckage.
Oh well, there is always next week or the next drawing.

Oooh-looks like fun. Can't wait to see the final. Cheers!
I've been watching for your post, even uncolored one does not fail to be a complete delight!
I love seeing the bones of a creation. This is going to be an A+ I can tell. I'll be back to see the finished one, until then I'll wait like a toddler who knows there are cookies in the oven:)))
well i can hardly wait to see it painted.
i have to tell you I look forward to seeing the 'Pud' marks.
I remember nights at Grandma's house. ;)
You know, I was thinking, "Come on woman! Where the heck is your illustration?" Ahhh, I have my fix now. Thanks!
Find it funny!!!Like seeing both versions.
You are sooo talented!
OMG. my FAVORITE for the week. braVA.
ROFLMAO.

I see no crap!
I think your colors and frabjous lines are terrific. (The highlight of my visits to grandmas house was watching her unlace her corset....)
Beautiful colors as usual. I like your loose style.

Thanks for the comments, they really make my day. I found out how much they mean when the hubby enabled the comment approval feature (and forgot to change it back) without telling me so no comments were posting to my website. It kept saying I had 0 comments. It was quite a nice surprise when he changed it back and ten comments popped up. :)
um, yeah - sorry, my bad :|
Maybe I shouldn't play around with your blog settings anymore, I was drunk with power!! :)
You make me sound like a task master, I just thought a day break would give you time to step away from your illo and get a fresh perspective the next day. It's not a "rule" -- so there :p :p :p
and :p
delightful! god your paintings are amazing and so imaginative!
what medium did you use for this one?
jaime - thanks, i used watercolor and an ink pen.
Oh this made me giggle. Your work is always so imaginative and just beautifully executed! I love to visit and see what is new.
Cookie time!! Yeah, it was worth the wait:))
I LOVE your characters and your colors.
