While reading a book have you ever said to yourself, "I really want to draw this character. I really need to know what they look like."?
So, I'm reading the George R.R. Martin's series "A Song of Fire and Ice". It's a fantasy epic with lots of sex and violence ( I'm half way threw the fourth book, " A Feast For Crows", there is supposed to be seven books in total, the fifth book hasn't come out yet and is way overdue) There's this one character Brienne of Tarth, she described as being very unattractive; huge and horsey, with a wide set nose, gapped teeth and stringy hair, she's shy from having been teased her whole life, yet remains a bit naive about the world. I guess I can kind of relate.
Just a quick reminder that the Ayden Gallery opening is tomorrow, Jan. 8th. It starts at 7 and is in Tinsel Town Mall, second level, their phone # is: 778-891-4310. There will be about a dozen local artists showing their work including three new pieces from yours truly. It will be fun. I hope to see you there!
