Description Stumbled across a character that I drew back in 2015 and just had to redraw this. Been working between Book illustration and art trade work recently which is why this hasn't been completed until now.

My original idea for her was that she is a witch of good intent, happily giving away good dreams to all children who still believe. Β 

Outside of being good, once every so often she would have to somehow keep her life energy a light to keep providing dreams to the little ones.
In order to do this she would select a naughty child, sneak into their room and leave behind an shadow star. This star would appear as a small star like burn under the child's bed when awake, but once he or she went to sleep...it would glow and absorb their good energy. Thus giving them bad dreams.

She dislikes doing so but she does it for the benefit of herself and the good children.

Her ''power''/''work'' sounds very creative and that along with her looks bring classical tales to my mind. You could say that the idea is very professional.
Β  Β Her pose is relaxed and I can see kindness is her eyes. The cat is a fun detail. Seems like those two are close friends.Β 
Β  Β The colors also look lovely! I especially like the fact that the stars are glowing, even the stars on her cape.

Oh wow thank you so much
I just always wanted this kind of sandman influence to her character, so in this case sandwoman
Based the pose off of myself sat up on a counter chair so I could see how my clothing hung from a height, plus it gave the relaxed pose that I wanted anyway so yay!! It helped me out

Actually, Sandman was one of the old stories that came to my mind. You are welcome.

Thanks so much She looks way better than what I first sketched up 2 years ago I sketched it first, scanned it, rubbed out the space around the character digitally and then lineworked on top on another layer to keep the pencil texture xxx

Nice! Its a nice feeling reworking and redoing stuff from the past, I think I'd quite like to do a redo t some point when I get chance!
It seems like a good exercise to do to see what you've learned and can apply.
This really is lovely though c: xxx
