Creature Card #26 ATC Edition "Miki"

Graphite on 3.5 x 2.5 inch smooth bristol paper. I wanted you to see the card before I told you about the inspiration today. That way you can find it after you have seen it for what it became. I forgot to bring my purse to church today so I didn't have the actual card to draw on. I did some doodles around my notes while listening to the sermon. This was actually the third doodle. I was looking at the pastors collar of his shirt. If you put your hand over the girl in the picture and just look at the wings that would be his shirt. She is right about where the buttons would start. The face was pretty hard to do since it's very small. Trying to still be accurate, provide some emotion and fit it in that space was fun. Overall I'm pleased with the end result.

There are only a couple more days in February. I'm trying to decide what to do for March. I am thinking about trying ink. That way during the move I have less to carry around, and they might photograph easier on the phone for the days I don't have everything settled or internet connection available. I have toyed with the idea of doing a few days either ahead of time or just take a few days off, but I think I'd rather try how it is and see how it goes.

I best get back to packing :) I have to start really monitoring how much time I spend online.

Final bid 1591 credits. This is the first card so far to go to Kansas!
Name "Miki"

I have found that there are generally two different strategies that can work. Either bid high to start and if no one wants it that bad you win, or be there when it ends. A lot of last min bidding can happens then. Both can be successful or fail. I set alarms for myself so I will check it near the last few min on the auctions I really want to win. When I bid high to start with people have too much time to outbid me. Sorry you didn't win Kaleb's card. I wish you the best on this one. I'm very glad that you like her.
