I started to write a Christmas fic based in the Mariposa world and a few paragraphs in I said to myself,"Self, why?"
So instead, I'm posting the drawing I did for When I Was Lost when ctbn60 had to drop out, and before silvervalley picked me up.

It's not bad. I stopped working on it when silvervalley contacted me but I figured I'd share what I had since it's been a bazillion years that I've done any art and it seemed wrong to kind of waste it...anyhoo, like to see it? Here it is--such as it is!



I wish the scanner was better. :(
There's a lot I would have changed on this, but I was pleased that for not doing any kind of work at all for--a long time, it wasn't too weak. I had trouble with the jaw and nose, as always, and the proportions are off but not to jarringly, I think. I've always had difficulty with proportions for some reason. In the rough stage it's not bad but heading towards finish, I wander off course a lot. Still, I like this. I'm glad my ability isn't totally dead!

Ooo! Roxy art! :D And awesome looking Roxy art too! I've never been able to draw better than stick figures so I admire anyone who can draw at all.

Mariposa Christmas fic?!?! The thought has me excited and scared at the same time. That story broke me more than any others of yours, I think.

Ah well, the Christmas fic isn't going to happen. :( But I promise, if I ever do finish this thing, I will e-mail it to you! *HUGS* Love you, my dear!

I love it. The eyes and lips really stand out, which is very appropriate. Clark looks so beaten down, but not quite out.

Thank you so very much! I feel better about posting it now! :)

Nice! The eyes make the sketch. Note to self, "Why not?" It would look very shiny, I loved the Mariposa world. Merry Christmas! I didn't get around to sending cards this year. RL just has me erasing this year from total recall, and am looking forward to a much better year in 2012.

You and I are in the same boat, card-wise. There was just so much going on, the only cards I got out were the ones I did at the beginning of the month and didn't get around to mailing until a few days ago.

Very cool! :-D

You! have too many kinds of talent. Leave us who can't write a haiku something to do and feel good about ourselves.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Ah, you are really too kind, believe me!

Aw, Clark's sad face...*cuddles him*

*GGGG*

Oh! Very nice. I really like the look in his eyes.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, my dear! :)

Ah, bb. It's lovely. I *do* like your art, so very much.
*twirls you*
*luffs you*

Wow, this is good! I love the texture/shading on the bricks and his hoodie.

[capnzebbie.livejournal.com]

I didn't even know you were an artist! That's lovely!

I see him in there...all his pain and his confusion and hopelessness. And I'm so, so glad he found (you gave him) his salvation. My Roxy!

xxooo!
