Day Twelve Thirteen: A Character from Your Favourite Book.
Full disclosure: today is actually Day Twelve (“A Group Picture”). I spent a couple hours (!!) on a painting of the kids from BBC’s Misfits, but it just turned out…bad. Real bad. You know those days where your pen is just not connecting to your heart, or vice versa? Today was that kinda day.
But I really, really didn’t want to miss a day of the drawing challenge, so here’s the consolation prize: a quick doodle of Rosa Saks Clay from one of my favourite books, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, by Michael Chabon.
I recommend reading the book if you’re interested in:
-comics
-Houdini (and magic and picking locks)
-Judaism
-sad but beautiful prose that makes your heart hurt a lil bit
-Antarctica
These are actually ALL my favourite things. Like, I’m kinda amazed an author put all of those things in a book and I got to read it! What a world we liiiiive in.
P.S. I will do a new, awesome, and totally-worth-the-delay Group Picture tomorrow. Yeah!
