french twist

 

 

  she's in the works...but i think nearly done. i'm excited about the way she's turning out! i did a girl with a head full of sushi a few years back and liked her so much i thought i'd try a few more inspired by assorted international cuisines.

i always have a little sketch book with me and the other night  at dinner i drew the little clown on the left. something about her struck with me and she inspired my most recent painting.
