Gallery Challenge Entry

[girlyswot]

I was inspired by this picture that gabrielladusult found and, since I wanted to take on the challenge of drawing people (which is my least favourite thing), it seemed a good thing to try and capture the spirit of the firemuses.  These are NOT intended to be recognisable portraits - though I know which one I want to be!  Any resemblance to actual people is purely luck not skill!!  But I did want us to look like we were having fun together and being a support to each other.  And, of course, we're wearing our little black robes.

So here's my picture. Pencil sketch, coloured in photoshop. 




What do you think?

It's charming, and the black dresses definitely make it.

But their not being intended as recognizeable portraits takes the fun out of it. I kept trying to figure out who was supposed to be whom -- but then I realized that I don't know what some of you look like!

Well, they sort of are intended to be us, just not looking like us, if that makes sense. Maybe us as we are at moonette's parties!! I'd be intrigued to know who you think is whom!
