Description Fun fact about Fuzzy: I love learning about the Roaring Twenties.

I dunno why, but I think the decadency of the period really appeals to me. The art, the fashion, and the music- the music!- and... stuff. I just really like it.

Any how, this lovely young flapper is another one of the pictures I did on the train while in transit between Montreal and Halifax. Notice, there's no black pen in this picture. I did it all with the grey pens, and it's an interesting effect. Softer. A bit less comic-book-y.

Which isn't a bad thing, by the way! I'm just experimenting.

Anyway, tell me what you think!

I'm liking the lack of black pen. Good choice! (See, I read artist comments [don't you love my brown-nosing?])

Really loving her facial expression - it's sorta tough, like a flapper had to be considering the, er, company she was around.

Lowland-Swagger In reply to celery-soda [2008-09-04 01:39:03 +0000 UTC]

No, you aren't. I always read the artist's comments!

...does that make ME a brown-noser? Am I a brown-noser among brown-noser? Am I throughly abusing the term 'brown-noser'?

And thank you!

Really? I thought she looked sort of... blase`. You know, like an "I'm far too sophisticated to be doing this" sort of look.

celery-soda In reply to Lowland-Swagger [2008-09-04 01:44:52 +0000 UTC]

No, just the fact that I was TELLING you I did makes me a brown-noser!

Hmm. I see it! I tend to interpret things differtly than most people. I suppose she could go either way... she's versatile!

Indeed! excuse the past horrible spelling and grammar on my last posts... I had to write a timed essay today so I've gotten used to typing a mile a minute... I proofread the essay, though

From what I've seen of flappers, it looks like you've got the attitude down perfectly. ^__^ She looks so pouty and sarcastic.

Yeah, we didn't cover much about that time period, either. Most of what I learned I learned on my own time. Cause I'm a nerd that way.

Just kidding. But I'm glad you like it! I love learning history... I can't wait to take my Continental European History class this year...

Its no problem
Yeah, i love history too! Even though the coursework for it these next two years will be a pain in the butt
I'm guessing Continental European History just includes history of countries in Europe?
