girls from the past ["made this myself" Week]

23 comments

For the 3rd day of this "Made This Myself" Week, I thought I'd do some illustrations: a flapper from the roaring 20s, and a groovy girl from the 60s! I'm not entirely happy with the end results (a little too sloppy), but I did say from the beginning that my projects weren't going to be about perfection. They were just something different and fun to do. So there - that justifies the sloppiness ;)

Are you blogging about something you've made this week? Then add your post to the Linky at the end of yesterday's post! I'd love to see it!

Tour little ladies are very cute! It reminds me of fafi, but with humans :)
I also like the backgrounds that you made for them.
You have quite a skill there.

Sweet sketches, Anna! The colors and backgrounds you added to each are perfect.

So beautiful! Can you give more detail as to how you made them/ inserted the backgrounds, etc, or did you do it all by hand?
