Adobe Illustrator and Corel Painter combo. Some reference elements for collage
Believe it or not, I was insane enough to post this on wholesome iFriday. My first attempt at illustrating the assignment -- as opposed to repurposing old art that I never got paid for.

Like its older sister, Illustration Friday Night is a voluntary, client-free playground for illustrators. A topic is posted every Friday morning. Participants from around the world create, post and share their interpretations. Think of us as a younger, more mischievous sibling.
At this stage of my career, I need a weekly public exercise to draw anything at all.
Unless otherwise stated, my iFriday Night work is all-new, created soley for that week's theme. Other Freshness categories include:
"It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not."

Sell that to Playboy - that's a WINNER! :) Fantastic expressions. What really makes it work is the extra makeup she's wearing.. Oh yeah, she's SO upset about it.. ;) Great style too, hints of Frazetta's comic line work.

holy geez… i am certain that there are soooooo many young boys that have had that thought on their minds… although actually seeing it is a bit dissturbing… your illustration is great and the style is wonderful...
thanks for the visit and the kind words…
