stuck in the mud

now here is a picture that is generally a bit kerfuddled. in one of the film adaptations of les miserables there is a little chimney sweep almost hidden behind the clutter of the tools he carries. I thought i'd draw a similar chimney sweep myself. the only problem is i couldn't really remember what said chimney sweep looked like, i definitely know mine is a more colourfully attired character.

i didn't feel especially like drawing them as a child so i added some clint eastwood eye wrinkling. then i decided that my character could probably pass for a woman. so i gave her a skirt. and the end reslut is a tad interetsing.

i also plan to move away from these melancholy pictures of jacketed people standing out in the void. somebody remind me to do some different stuff next time.
