Oh, man this is cool. It reminds me of those powerful photos you see on the cover of magazines like 'National Geographic' featuring people in remote far away countries living 'olde world' style. Nice detail- especially in the face and hands.

Cotton Candy!

wonderful character in her face. she looks like she's been through a lot and remains steadfast. great draw.

..hahaha :))) you made my day, friend! That thing in her hand is called "fuior" and it's actually a bunch of washed and brushed wool on a distaff. But I can see the resemblance ...mmm :)

I love her face it has sutch character her shirt looks great too!
Luka what is a "fuior" for?

well, it is one of the tools used in the spinning process(like the spindle or the spinning wheel). It helps holding the wool while twisting the fibers(needed for making clothes) with the fingers :)

ah! thats right I thought that's what it looked like but I wasn't shure so it's called a Fuior kewlies! ^_^

Haha..Someone should show them some cotton candy. Glad i made your day!

This is a really good entry. She has such character.
