The Year of the Fairy Tale has been on “vacation” for a couple of months now. It is hard for me to keep creating without an outside “container” or “reason”. The other day I decided to break that pattern and just DO IT on my own. (knowing that The Year of the Fairy Tale was about to start again!)
I have always been fascinated by figure drawing, probably because I’m fascinated by people. This pencil sketch was done fairly quickly as I was trying to capture the essence of the figure – rather than realism. (Also, it’s easier to sketch essence!) Here’s what evolved from my DO IT.
Three “Muses”
Inspired by The Seven Valleys – a mystical book written by Baha’u’llah. This Baha’i book doesn’t specifically focus on longing, pain or remorse – it’s just what evolved in my psyche.

I am truly impressed, that’s wonderful. I love the shapes of the beautiful women, now turn them around, please, and do their fronts. I loved this so much I tweeted it so everybody can see your natural talent. Nope, not joking. LOVED IT. Laurie

Peachy,
You’ve given me my first tweet! Thanks!
Turn them around? Hmmm I’ll have to apply to the BBD (Blog Board of Decency) for an R-rating first.
You’re the best!
