Well.
Polly belongs to

.
And unfortunately, I don't think I did a very good job of drawing her. I went overboard.
which is what happens when you draw in the middle of the night.
I think I sort of destroyed her.
And drawing people smoking has never been something I'm fond of -- in fact, I don't draw people smoking at all, so this was something completely different. (None of my characters smoke. lol. well, maybe Van, but he's nuts. But no one else.) But i'm not going to preach.
I know lots of outstanding people who smoke. it's a habit. a not good one, but it is one. sort of like biting nails. Sort of.

mentioned that Polly's slightly insane. I was sort of trying to go for that here. And no, Polly's not a geisha. I don't know how the hell that happened, but I was sort of trying to...give out some sublime subliminal message in this. If you can figure it out, then you're just as insane as I am. Good stuff.
I think I'll try again, (drawing Polly) because I'm not so sure how I feel about this and I don't think

would approve. lol. I'm so sorry Jamie. I should never try to be artsy again.
*looks up* whoa. that's a long description...

the coloring is gorgeous, i especially like the way you did the lips. and the smoking seems to just enhance the emotion and atmosphere, it's not necissarily bad. And a long description also can mean that you took care and time to write it out, so don't freak out.
nice pic.

I do not know much about imaging or drawing or what you were going for exactly but from personal taste I found the face had a realistic quality to it and I was especially drawn to the eyes. I found the background very nice I am giving this a fav.
