Illustration Friday: "Robot"

Title: Miss Adventure
Medium: Prismacolor colored pencils & ink
Support: 100 lb smooth bristol
Size: 2.5" x 3.5"

  I love old tin robots but have always been disappointed with the lack of female robots out there...so here is "Miss Adventure", a girlybot with a delicate face and heavy duty pink body.  She's out for a stroll with her toy kitty on the moon. On Miss Adventure's chest is a Girl-O-Meter, and on a scale of 1-13 of girliness, she's a 13 of course! This little drawing won 1st place in eBay's "Nibblefest Art Contest" in November 2005.


Thanks for lookin' :)
