Day 8: The half and Half Woman




The raised eyebrow takes this sad face into a slightly inquisitive direction. I fell back to my comfortable blind contour drawing style for this one. I was tired and didn't want to wrestle with the question of subject matter. It felt a bit like cheating. Maybe that is the look on her face. I am tired and I wonder if anyone will notice the cheat. Try looking at each half of her face separately. Two totally different looks. Reminds me of a baby and one minute they can be crying and the next laughing. She is caught in the millisecond of change between inquisitive and melancholy; mischievous and weary; hopeful and hopeless. I like that.
