"OUR LADY OF LOURDES" SKETCH



Happy Sunday everyone! My computer troubles are over thank goodness. My Mac completely died and I had no access to Photoshop except at Kinko's and I was getting super discouraged. But last week a friend of mine gave me her old PC and I was able to load Photoshop Elements on it and at least work on my digital stamp designs.
On Friday, I found a PC at the Salvation Army store for $50 and it had a ton of memory on the Hard Drive so I couldnt pass it up. I didnt know what programs were on it but something just told me to buy it and when I hooked it up it had Photoshop and Illustrator and In-Design! The complete design package was on it! 

Needless to say, I am grateful for being able to work in color again! I wanted to share this sketch of "Our Lady of Lordes" that I will be coloring in pink, blue and white. I have drawn at least 5 sketches of her in my sketchbook before I drew the perfect one and this is her! I hope you like her:)
