Scarlett O'Hara -Vivien Leigh

'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 'Heroes' contest. I have so many heroes in my life that when I decided to draw something for the club's heroes contest I had to work on a few drawings at the same time.

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!!! Thanks everyone for your support and CONGRATS to all the winners.
