Here's today's face:

| "But I ain't no seagull, you know my name." - Tom Waits |
I picked the words for the page from this song ("So It Goes" by Tom Waits):
Oh, I love his scratchy, scratchy voice! And great lyrics too! Oh, I swoon, my friends, I swoon.
I had fun with this face... She's done with a 2B pencil and watercolor (My watercolors are just Michael's store brand, but I REALLY like them...I wish they would sell individual colors of them...or a bigger set!) and then the writing is a 03 black Micron. Her seagull beak mask makes me so happy! It's kind of a silly touch for such a melancholy song, but I like it.
I kind of remember having a beak mask when I was a kid, except for mine was a toucan beak instead of a seagull...I want to say it was a toy from a McDonald's Happy Meal? Does anybody else remember that toy? Maybe I'm crazy...that's always a possibility... :)
And before I go just a quick reminder: follow my blog (pretty please with sugar on top!) and then come back September 29th and leave a comment so you can have a chance to win the surprise prize! <3
