For my Birthday (on Thursday) I made myself this Bettie Page Illustration. Well - I had started it last week - but I finished it on Thursday. It’s a drawing that lived in my brain for awhile - but I just didn’t know how I was going to tie it all together. Did I want it to be cartoony? Realistic? I just didn’t know.

So I decided to use the new broken line style I’ve been experimenting with. It turned out better than I had hoped.

Happy Birthday, you! And this is such a nice illustration :) Definitely retains that pin-up feel about Bettie Page but also the skull on the moon adds that gothic look to it :)
