I've Got Nothing to Do Today But Smile

[rowyn]

At Lut points out, I have a number of other plans for today -- there's an MMORPG wedding this evening in Puzzle Pirates, I want to go to the art supply store today and pick up some more things, I'll spend an hour or so exercising, and I'll probably do some writing and/or drawing today.

But this line from a Simon and Garfunkel song keeps going through my head nonetheless. My vacation started yesterday, and I ain't got no plans and ain't goin' nowhere, so I'm just relaxing and smiling.

I scanned in my third and, for now, final attempt at Striped Person with Tendril-ly Hair. The icon version looks good, I think, although the full-size one is lacking a certain something. Not enough black in the background, perhaps. Or maybe I should've taken tuftears suggestion and done hatchmarks for the trendrils instead. And colored the lips red.

Anyway, I'm declaring this one Done. queenofstripes, feel free to snag it if you like it, and replace the "halfmask" one unless you really wanna keep that. :)

And the Odd Question for the day: Why do I always draw figures facing to their left?

Interesting.... 2 of the 4 lionesses you did for me are pointing right, but yes most of em are facing left.... might have something to do with right hand dominance and people's best sides. So throughout our lives without realizing it we're more inclined to notice the right side of people and people are more inclined to present their right side when standing talking to us.

When you draw a character, you're drawing it as though it were in front of you facing you.... hence if they point left, they're presenting their right (dominant) side.
