digital painting...Jasmine

This past year I spent some time in New Orleans.  I'd often sit on my balcony, enjoying the shade and watching horse drawn carriages roll by.  It was here I could smell the scent of jasmine; exotic and sweet, wafting through the trees.  Such a gorgeous scent.

I wondered what Jasmine would look like in human form...I did a pen and ink sketch, which was set aside and forgotten.

I found the sketch again, crumpled a bit and sandwiched between the pages of an old book. It seemed time to either throw it away or do something with it.  So I decided to turn it into a digital painting.

That's jasmine in her hair.
