Description
Another ink test with Batty. That turned out to be a little too much work for a doodle. I'm oddly surprised at the results too. I wasn't sure I could pull off a pattern like that without it taking over the illustration.============
5x7 ink with ink washes on Bristol paper.

It works wonderfully. It does sort of take over, but it's sort of like your eyes enjoy the pattern first and then see these cute little faces peering out. Gives it a spooky charm.

Thank you so much!
Right now I just call her Batty. I haven't really thought of a name even though I've been drawing her for years.

I think Batty suits her just fine. It sort of fits the vibe.
