Day 3: a conservative old lady zombie. It’s tricky making someone clearly undead when they didn’t die from a wound and are too fresh to start falling apart yet…

Day two: another in the Western theme, this time a fella. Quick sketch in the Brushes app.

I thought I was done drawing cowboy hats when we finished In Maps & Legends. Guess not. Damn things.

Drawn on iPad (Brushes app), pencil.

I’m working with a few others on a pitch, so my entries for the next week or so will probably all be Western-themed!

I’m glad we ladies can wear pants nowadays.
