'Tomorrow is another day'
The drawing of the stunning Vivien Leigh from the legendary movie Gone with the wind. She has been, and will always be, my top pick for the most inspiring female fictional charactor ever. After watching the movie when I was just a kiddie I've been using her motto as if it's mine ever since. This is the entry for It's the FIRST time I've ever drawn a female celeb (what a way to start). Choosing this drawing as the contest entry was kind of the last minute thing because I wasn't sure if I could pull it off. Well, I didn't screw it up but PLEASE give me some feedback so I know how to improve from here. I wanted this drawing to look like an old photograph so I chose to draw on a tinted metallic paper instead of the usual white paper one. This paper is always tricky to work on but it's shimmering surface gives the drawing more depth and dimension in real life. Too bad you can't see that effect from your computer screen. UPDATE: I won the 3rd prize, YEAH!!! Daily DeviationGiven 2008-05-10Karen originally suggested a different drawing, but having featured the movie twice in a span of only a couple weeks, I decided to peek through the gallery of this fantastic artist instead. Scarlett O'Hara -Vivien Leigh by ~akaLilith is breathtaking. The effect created from the unique paper she chose really makes this 'Gone with the Wind' drawing pop-- alongside her amazing skill, of course!

I absolutely adore the realism! This does look like a black and white photo. The eyes and hair are gorgeous! The choice of paper is excellent. The sepia tone really compliments the soft shading of her face! Fantastic job!!!
