DiRi β€” Under my umbrella

Description finished my work for this year's San Diego Comic Con. This is a picture taken by my friend John Roach, and it shows the beautiful Heather Conlin. She will attend Comic Con too, so be sure to meet us there at booth #4413

I had so much fun drawing tattoos again, so I will do some more soon. The umbrella, and that really is something weird, was very difficult to draw. Never done one before, and I think it lacks a bit depth... but I will do better next time

Hope you all like it

Original size: 55x75cm (22x30")

thanks so much.

To be honest: The tattoos were fun to draw because of all the little details, the umbrella gave me a headache, and I think it shows that I rushed it!

Insane. Are the stripes starting to bore you that you have switched to the tattood girls? Excellent job on the tats and see nothing wrong with the umbrella.

No, stripes don't bore me... yet And tattoo-drawing is so calming, I just love it, and I want to do more I have a couple of models waiting to be drawn.

Ma approach with the umbrella was wrong... I started with the tiny details, and that was a mistake (I think). Now I know better!
