Masquerade
Vecona, corset and masks.
Always with the number 7. I was wanting the popular cabbage roses of the Victorian, but went with something more stylized.
One pen was harmed in the making of this piece. ha ha Is that wrong to say? I do not care. ;)
My piece for the Victoriandustrial groups challenge for the Masquerade.

Excellent work Lynette. I can empathise with you over the pen. I use Rotring Isograph pens. I have five I bought about twenty years ago and they still work. They cost the equivalent of $12 each when I bought them,. but are now approx. $40 each. The nib units snap easily if borrowed by small children … I speak from experience here :(

Thanks so much. I know how that is. Ages ago my nephew, then 3, got ahoold of my pen and art piece I was working on…and added a bit of his own doodles. ...good times…

Oh she is wonderful- I love her pose, its very coy yet sexy too and great background and use of negative space- This is another fav FAV xxxxxx
Lynette K. replied
Thanks Anita. :) So glad you like. I had her sketched out for sometime before I figured what I wanted to with her. To tell you the truth…I do not care much for neg. space…but when it works…it works. :)
