One moment I'm thinking about doing a portrait, but have no idea where to start. The next moment a flash of inspiration strikes and I run off to fetch some paper and draw a few outlines for a new painting. That inspiration was the continuous neck-eyes-chin outline. It makes for a rather eerie Pinkamena portrait with the eyes all stretched out of proportion.

The lock of hair on the right is curled to fill an otherwise large gap in the composition. Without it the piece felt rather unbalanced. The background used to be smoother, but that was a bit boring, so I added the visible brush strokes. Mainly used a square brush again—it is awesome.

I probably had Pinkamena on my mind because of some other portraits of her I've seen lately, like [link] and [link] .
