Let It Go

I have wanted to draw Elsa since I first saw Frozen and this page gave me the chance.
I originally wanted to draw her in white but it didn't show up on the background. I wanted a kind of ghostly feel to it rather than a true copy of her form and I think i did that well.

I ended up with blue ink all over my hands as I had gessoed the page before inking it. I will have to seal it with hair spray.

But first I will be writing some things I need to let go underneath like jealousy of other artists (I didn't want to bore you with my angst so I've uploaded it in this state.

Thanks to Brenda at Bumblebees and Butterflies for her blog party and Hi to you if you have drifted over from there.

  1. I love your background, and you are wonderful at rendering the image you wanted to convey (even if not in white!) I also am in awe/jealousy of what others post. I found this article most helpful; perhaps you may as well (or not!) http://www.businessinsider.com/danger-of-comparing-yourself-to-others-2014-11

  2. That fabulous background is the perfect backdrop for your drawing, it really does look ghost-like and ethereal. I think we all consider ourselves 'not good enough' at many things in our lives but for me there is no right or wrong in art, we express ourselves through the art we make and enjoy the process. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Keep going Jenni. xxx
