Soooo I been kind excited  and thinkin about my blog...that I just started today...and so I posted this work in progres of a girl smoking just beyond the Eiffel Tower at sunset. I wanted a soft romantic feeling so I took my initial sketch on the right and  decided to use pastels. I forgot how messy that gets soooo the colors kinda got muddy in the image on the left so I started over again with the center piece leaving all the darks for last...theeeeen i decided I didnt like her pose anymore so I scrapped all three and I started all over :)

p.s thanks to jon kuo who helped with some perspective issues and to my handsome husband for the inspiration:)
