Sploshes of Colour: Summer Heat 1

Remember that sketch I did the other day? The frazzled one? I’m embellishing it.

I’m adding colour. And hopefully depth. Life. Character. Heat. Maybe a background. Maybe another character or two. I’m in a creative mood right now.

But.

I’m not rushing things… I’m being shown signs to SLOW DOWN; so I’m slowing. This is how far I’ve got…

I may be finished by 2020.

In my next Sploshes of Colour post, you’ll be able to see how further along I am. When it’s posted that is…

Always end on a cliff-hanger. It worked so well with Dallas and Dynasty…

Ooh, I like it! It makes me feel hot. It exudes heat. Great work, Tom. I look forward to the progress on it. So happy you’re feeling creative.

  Funnily enough, Sue, I was going to go for red, thinking of heat, but then changed my mind. Actually, I clicked green in error and that changed my mind for me!
  Hope you’re all rested now!

  They should be along shortly, LA… although, I may leave them out just as those classical sculptors did many years ago…

When it’s humid, my hair doesn’t stand up like that. It frizzes, and the part close to my head sticks to my head. (She types as she tries to unglue her hair from her sweaty scalp and swats the frizz out of her mouth.)

  One thing I’ve never had is frizzy hair, Andra. It does everything else, but not that!
  Hope you;re now unstuck and frizz-free!

  Thanks, Icewolf. I wonder if you’ll think that after the next ’round’ of embellishments?
