did a shout out for people who wanted to do art trades, and I couldn't resist! For me, she did my character Tweet, and for her, I did her character Sam.

She said that Sam exists in a world with ballet-ing monsters, so while I didn't have the energy to crate actual monsters in the background, I watercolored in some monster-y faces in there.

In my preliminary sketches that I had been doing, she had a much more exhausted look on her face, but it seems that such a feeling is only slightly expressed in this final version. I was originally going to go for more color too, but I bought a handful of grey copics last weeked, and I really wanted to mess around with them. ;_; (Honestly, I should have invested in a new palate of watercolors, since the ones I use are the elementary school Crayola kind... the educational kind.) I was also intending on getting this done last weekend, but I scrapped my first drawing and this is done on the flip-side of that; I guess I needed a week to sit and think on it. (8

ANYWAY, enough of my rambling on, I hope you enjoy this, and that I captured your Sam at least half decent, ~AbusedMollusc!


Ps- You guys should totally check out the image that she made me: here!


... Oh, and sorry for the bad ballerina skirt. X: I should have used a reference.
