Series...


So I made a whole series of drawings called "Wild Girls Tamed". They are girls who were living in the wild in the 1900's and were taken into a school where they were "tamed" but really they are still wild. Lots of tiny tiny lace detail and pencil stroke goodness.

If you are interested in purchasing one of these girls then send me an email (funiscool@gmail.com) for prices etc (I'll make a discounted price if you would like more than one also). I have them all listed in my shoppie too.



Love Connection is playing at Mighty Mighty tonight! Hope I can make it.

These are beautiful as always. (Although the premise does make me think of an early Ladette to Lady.)

um... they are wild girls who lived alone in mountain caves and were raised with wolves and so on.

if "ladette to lady" is a show about pulling wild young women who hunt with their bare hands and howl around forests and trees in freedom away from their homes in 1906 to try to force them into lives that they couldn't possibly understand of clothes and cooked food then maybe.

hopefully i have rid you of your bad tv references. i only wish that i had no idea what the program you referenced was.
