Here we go guys, another Movie Sketch Project! (That thing in which I make some art for a movie I reviewed this week.) I was rather taken with Ms Cleopatra Jones on Monday, and conceived of a design that showcased her super awesome fro. I spent a lot of time working out how the letters could be composed, striving to make it look like her hair was covering up the words, but I'm not sure I quite captured it since I was working with some tricky inks. Oh well. I hope to make an altered version in photoshop when I have time (so many ideas, so little time!), and maybe turn it into a cool poster. We'll see! For now click ahead to see the painted version! It's cropped, unfortunately, since my scanner's too small.
Hmm it's not for sale at the moment (unless someone's interested?), but maybe the digital poster version will be. Other stuff is available, though.
UPDATE: After some painstaking digital coloring, I've turned the pencil drawing into what I believe is a pretty rockin' print, and closer to the original idea I had in mind anyway. The image is posted below, and it's for sale!
