Unfurl

Good morning, Oddies! Alexis here, and as many of you know, I’m a huge fan of the work that Kristy posts on her Patreon account and I wanted to feature one of those today.

This image is called Unfurl, and it’s from the July release. As soon as I saw the big curly hair, my Scottish blood screamed ‘MERIDA’!, so that’s how I had to color her, even if it’s not the most obvious choice.

I colored her with Copic markers and then set her on a simple water color background. I used just a simple sentiment, because it spoke deeply to me.

I love LOVE coloring curly hair. I look like a lunatic when I do it. My hand is just squigling all over the place, but it’s fun and freeform and more interesting that straight hair, I think.
