Some bugs. I had trouble focusing on the final bug because it reminded me of that episode of South Park where they parodied Inception and Stan's dad turned into a butterfly and refused to help Stan. So through out this entire drawing I was thinking of South Park quotes.
I had a good idea of the composition that I wanted when I started this painting and here I'm starting to solidify it. I'm trying to incorporate what James Gurney calls the windmill technique, which is when the center has a very specific relationship to the background, its named after a Rembrandt painting of a windmill. The relationship is like this, light on light (hood and dress), light on dark (scarf thing), dark on light (gloves and hair) and dark on dark (dress).
