Butterfly Face

I finished this drawing yesterday and I'm pretty proud of myself, because I finished relatively quick: Two days.
The title "Butterfly Face" reminds me of the expression "butter face" lol

Either way, "Butterfly face" is 8 x 10 inches, pencil, colored pencil and watercolor over paper and she is for sale at USD40.00.

Here she is!




I hope you like her and remember that I have a page in Facebook you should like if you haven't yet! Here's the link: Gabriela Handal Arte

Mandinka.

Finished and sealed this drawing last night.
It's titled "Mandinka", based on a Sinèad O'Connor song of the same name. Supposedly, the song is based on a book called "Roots" and it's some kind of historical novel that has to do with the Mandinka people in Africa.
I have no intention of reading the book and the drawing is more what the song means to me. Specially the lyrics: "I don't know no shame, I feel no pain, I can't see the flame", which are pretty great, if you ax me.
The drawing is 10 x 14 inches, pencil, colored pencil, watercolor and acrylic over paper <3

Basic comfort.

Today I started and finished this little eye drawing, I felt like getting right in the middle of my comfort zone today.
I try often to dabble in other shit that I don't usually fuck with, just to try new stuff and get the creative fluids flowing. It's important for an artist to constantly grow and learn and not box oneself in one thing.
