The Bashful Squid

Not all of my drawings end up resulting in what I went after. I drew a practice version of this squid in ink, and then wanted to try a different approach for the 'true' drawing. I used the colored pencils to lay out the form first, and then inked over the creature afterward (instead of pencils, inks, then color).

She is floating under the sea, bubbling away happily, yet feeling a bit shy about having her image rendered...
