productivity on vacation

who would have thought that my vacation would have been productive?? not me, thats for sure. 
i love relaxing and whatnot, but honestly, i cant go to long without drawing or doodling something! art is always fun for me... at least when there aren't any deadlines involved.

ive been really into drawing suggestive halo/aureola rings around figures heads lately. its not meant to be taken as a literal indication of an immortal being.. but i guess its open to interpretation. i just drew this little ink drawing on the plane ride home and then colored it with twistables (you know, the twist-up kids crayons? those things rock!) anyways, i wanted to add background cuz it is my worst enemy and i need to push myself to do backgrounds more instead of leaving empty space. its just a doodle, but practice makes perfect, right?

cheers,
ashley

  1. I adore this picture! Keep up with the backgrounds, this one is so whimsical and quaint. I wish I could be this productive in my photography.;)

  2. How long do your doodle typically take you to finish? Do you do it in one setting or break it up?

    1. i usually doodle in one sitting... typically it takes me like a half hour. which is how long this one took :) i find if i break up time between doodling, it never gets finished!
