Description "I'm not a dark person and I don't consider myself dark."
- Tim Burton

One of my favorite quotes from my favorite film maker. And I think it says EVERYTHING about my character, Marilyn.

When I first came up with the idea for Mary, I never considered her being "goth" or having any extremely dark characteristics. I think of her as a person who uses those elements to create a more positive outlook on life. So in a way, darkness doesn't have to be all "Doom & Gloom." It can be surprisingly interesting; And sometimes fun!

This pic took me about 2 hours to draw. I basically came up with junk off the top of my head and drew it down. I think it came out pretty damn good.

Marilyn (C) Me

Cool. Like Ruby Gloom. In fact, I see Misery's eyes and tears at the bottom middle.

The way you describe her personality reminds me a little bit of Ruby Gloom.

Ah, according to your artist's comment you think and do art as I do. Do whatever comes and don't plan. That is also one of my favourite quotes from Mr. Burton

The expression she carries shows that she really doesn't care, hehe, I like the things you drew around her, like Misery's eyes and the expressions around her. Really good
