do it your own self

drawn 20 May, 2007
pencil on paper

back a couple of entries, prettywendylady commissioned me to draw something for a her little girl's room. princesses and fairies.
while i love fairy tales and was for while, lucky to have a Prince of my own, i think the future women of tomorrow need to know that it's ok to not wait around for the boy. sometimes, you have to take matters into your own hands and save yourself.
here, we see rapunzel, having freshly chopped her hair, tieing it to the rail to make an escape.

wendy? whatcha think? it's it ok, i'll go ahead and start inking and coloring.

i'm in love with the way this drawing turned out. i'm toying with the idea of making and selling some prints of it. in that case, wendy, you would own the original. 8^)
would $10 a print sound fair? i could put them on etsy.

off to work.
