you have a Crocodile in your hair


Finally the 'Fantasy Story' assignment done! The title I chose was 'The Girl whose hair came to life'. Basically she's a funny little girl who likes crocodiles, and wishes she had a REAL one. And of course, a real crocodile comes to life from her hair. Makes sense, yes?

The colours scanned a bit off but I actually don't mind the look of it. The pink is actually supposed to be a really bright hot pink, but my scanner... must dislike pink? I don't know. But anyway I'm happy with this painting and relieved I was able to finish it in time. It's gouache on pastel paper.
