Just to remind you how she looked like...


It was the first "flawed" drawing I made for Illustration friday...
so you can see how the character evolved; the full drawing is in the previous page :)

La première illustration de "Flawed" que j'ai faite pour Illustration Friday...
comme ça vous pouvez voir comment le personnage a évolué; vous pouvez trouver le dessin en entier en page précédente.

(Alain et Yveline, j'ai écrit en Français!!!mais en général je ne le ferai pas pour les gros pavés, ça prend encore plus de temps ;D)

Flawed shop's owner sketches...


Here are some quick sketches I made while looking at some stupid stuff with Pascal,and sipping a good grog...
Now , the owner looks less severe. Before she was maybe too much like out of "little house" character, or too much of a holy mary...heehee
She also has a more mischievious smile, which suits better to a woman who likes selling flawed items. I will try to make some color drawings tomorrow.

Voilà quelques croquis que j'ai faits en regardant des séries débiles avec Pascal, tout en sirottant un bon grog...
Maintenant, la propriétaire de la boutique a l'air un peu moins sortie de la petite maison dans la prairie, ou moins grenouille de bénitier.
Elle a aussi un sourire plus mutin, ce qui sied mieux à une femme qui aime vendre des objets imparfaits. J'essaierai de faire quelques dessins en couleur demain.

Nighty night! Liz

A sunday afternoon in a cemetery...


Today was a really quiet day, and we've decided with Pascal to draw somewhere...initially, we were thinking about going to Brocéliande, but today, we were surrounded by barriers, as " Tout Rennes court" racers have invaded our quarter...
No escape was possible with a car, so we just ended up going to the Saint Martin Cemetery in Rennes, to draw some graves. I was also thinking about doing it in order to get some ideas for a contest...
We were quite surprized to see many people were here. This cemetery is quite interresting, there are many celtic crosses, some really wacky tombs (kind of too much), and much more creepy ones, with hands coming out of the floor...we were thinking about drawing it but it was way too creepy. We wended up sitting in an alley, to draw the vault you can see on this drawing.
We stopped at one moment, at the weather was changing pretty quickly, and the afternoon was becoming windy!
Now, time for a good grog and a hot meal!
