[03.03.06] Witches.
This week I produced two witches, the reason is I couldn’t decide which one not to draw. They both appealed to me in different ways, when I started doing my research. I start by reading about witches and then looking at different women trying to find faces that fit my idea of a witch. (I can think of a couple of x-girlfriends that fit.)
This first drawing I found a face that looked like a witch that looks more like a modern ideal of a witch, black robe, pointy hat, etc. Basically a witch with all the typical symbols that we know describes a witch. I had hoped to not use those symbols so i decided to work on another..
Now this witch was going to be a more Shaman like, earthy, old world. She had to look like she could be the spiritual leader of a tribe, that was my thinking when I was sketching this one.
lo.
