The girl with no name


She started as a doodle sketch on Friday evening but then she wouldn't let me stop until I had layered and collaged and waxed and blended and stamped. But she refused point blank to tell me her name. I suppose she thinks it's funny to be so coy. However, I'm not impressed.

I might just call her Mo.



Sharing for Sunday Sketches... well, she started as a sketch!

This is a very short post for me, but my son is standing at my shoulder waiting to be taken to crazy golf!

  1. She looks rather sad. Is her sign actually advertising her need for someone to love her?

  2. The first name that came to my mind was Trina. Not sure why. She seems sadly mysterious.
    Stay inspired!

  4. You have to find a beautiful frame for this mystery gal. This is just stunning. Definitely my favorite piece of yours so far. Not only did her face come out lovely but the placement of everything really adds to the glamour of her style, like the butterfly right under the eye, the dangly earring, the rose over the blue hair, etc.

  19. Did you take a photo of her while she was still a sketch? She is really interesting and would be tempted to do the same thing because I love collaging!
