Beauty

Hi. Originally I intended to wait until I color this picture before I post it, but I don't currently own the right colors for it, and I decided recently to spend a month without spending a bit of money on anything that I don't need, unless it's for a promise to a friend, or a birthday gift, or maybe charity. I hate not giving moneys to charities, but I don't currently have the income-level to be a member of the charity-giving class, so maybe they'll just have to live without my couple of dollars for this month. Not that my financial situation is dire. I do have money in savings, though without a full-time job that money is fading away. And you know how it is, when you're under-employed. It's kind of depressing. Not the I-need-meds kind of depressed, but just a temporary weariness and wanting to lay down and live in the rut you're stuck in for a while. This is because the human brain is wired on backwards. Scientific fact. I have a psychology degree, and I can say whatever I want. On my personal spending-moratorium, I'll probably soon make an exception for buying colored pencils, and maybe a notepad. I need something to aid in building up my confidence.

Anyway, this character belongs to me. She came directly out of my head with no photo references. Most of my pretty people come from my head, but few of them end up pretty on paper. Anyway, any resemblance to any other person, pretty or non-pretty, is strictly coincidental. Come to think of it, she looks like both my ex-girlfriends, but I choose to believe that to be a coincidence. Oh, by the way, I'll color and ink this sometime, and I'll put up the final version.
