Ink portrait in Victorian gown



To follow up the previous two drawings (and I'm sorry there's been a bit of a gap, I've been doing most of my work in a book), I did another large drawing of the same subject to colour. This time I simplified the background a little so the detail on the dress was more important to the overall picture. I'd marked out all the wallpaper when I thought it could do with something extra, hence the perhaps-not-quite-appropriate lamps (IKEA). It's fun all the same, and nice to look at, except for the face, which was a little small to get the detail properly on in the end.
