Illustration Friday: Sorry



















Sorry...as in, "Who's Sorry Now," one of 1950s songstress Connie Francis' big hits. Amazing hair, amazing voice...not sure I captured her smoky, smoldering attitude here but it was fun trying. Also—still trying to stay LOOSE, so let's just call this Loosen up! Part 3.

She's fabulous!! Great idea for this topic, and I love that dress! You did such a good job on her hair ~it looks professionally highlighted and styled. :-)

Nice use of texture throughout this one! I really like the patterns on her dress. Can you loan me some of your fantastic talent for drawing women please?

This is so well done - it's good to see digitally-produced stuff that doesn't look digital!

Chris, I remember listening to Connie Francis sing this song on the radio and seeing her in the early days of TV.
You've captured her essence exactly.
