Day 15- Owl Gloves
My sister Leslie gave me these awesome owl convertible mittens/gloves for Christmas. They are so freaking cute I absolutely love them. They have these little pom pom ears and are brown knit. I realized partway through this drawing that drawing knit gloves is a bad idea. There are a ton of little threads making up those suckers. So I kind of cheated and made the look of the threads without actually drawing every single thread. It is surprisingly difficult for me to fake texture because I am a bit of a realist I guess you would say, and I like to draw things exactly how they look, so not doing the real texture was difficult, but I do like the way they turned out. I really need to get a manicure, my nails are horrible and uneven. I've never had a real manicure or pedicure before can you believe that!? Just sisters and roommates and myself have done these nails.

I love this drawing! Not only because I gave you the mittens, but because the detail is pretty good also. And, I'd never had a pedi until Heather and Nick treated before the cruise, and have never had a mani. Come up to visit and we will go get our nails did. ;)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a plan! And I love the gloves too, picture and the real things. They are sooo cute! So so cute.
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad Kari. I have only had one manicure/pedicure. It was a couple of years ago. Grandmama did it for me. It wasn't my cup of tea though. Your picture is cute. I was with Leslie when she got these for you. :)
