I hope your weeks are going well! I’m just happy that it’s Friday! And look, I finally got around to doing blot no. 18. ^_____^

Here’s the original blot supplied by Stefan.

Here’s my lacy take on it.

And here’s the end result.

I didn’t have my brush + ink handy, so I used a plain, ole no. 2 pencil that I found on my desk. I scanned in the separate bits + then colorized them in Photoshop using layer blending modes.

On a side note, my arms are a tad sore from kickboxing last nite (because I rarely go), so that’s why the type has such a nervous edge to it. But I kind of like it. Oh, I still have Feist on the brain (”I’m sorry” is the opening to So Sorry).

Happy drawing,
Ninja

    Haha, thanks! It actually started off as a random doodle while I was waiting for some client changes to come out of editorial. The lace came later on, just b/c I wanted to make some swirly patterns. I also felt like it could use some type-lovin.' I'm going back for a 2nd dose of pain—more kickboxing tonite. ~__^

    Hope your classes are going well. Thanks for stopping by NvP!
