For my first witch in the series, I decided to feature strawberries! I love their pinky-red color, bright green leaves and the texture of the seeds. They are also very yummy! This cute witch, dressed in all her strawberry themed garb, is perched atop a gorgeous strawberry. I will add a background when I create the lines in Photoshop. I plan on creating a stripe design with a scalloped/lace type effect on the top and bottom with some polka dots. I should start on those lines very soon. I hope you all like the first witch in the series!
I will also be having a naming contest for her! If you would like to participate, please post your name suggestion below. You can post as many names as you like and you can also post if you've won a contest of mine previously. I always choose the name that I feel suits the piece best regardless if you have won before or not. The person that suggests the name I pick will win a 5x7" print of the finished piece! Thanks so much to all who participates. I plan on announcing the winner as soon as I post the digital line version which should be fairly quickly. I'm going to have a lot of time over the holiday weekend to work on her, so make sure to get your names in!
ok- I know it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the theme, but she just looks like a Shellie to me :).
ReplyDeleteCool....Dotty, named for the polka-dots and the seeds in the strawberries. :)

ReplyDeleteHi Nikki! I love the fruit theme, and the sketch looks great! A lot of "S" names are coming to me, I think because of the strawberry theme. Anyway, here are my suggestions: Stephanie, Stella, Sydney, Sophie, Samantha, Bridget.
ReplyDeleteLove the names everyone! Thank you so much! If you're still looking to submit a name, you still have some time to do so. =)
ReplyDeleteI think she looks like Magdalena,Bellatrix,Florence,Genevieve,Felicity,Maybelle,Tallulah or Rosalee,she lovely!!
ReplyDeleteHey Nikki*Luv. Lindsay here. This is my first name submission. (Well, it's actually more of a creative title for the piece rather than a mere name): Sloan ~ Salem's Sweetest. ~ Let me know what'cha think, Luv. Awesome contest! Awesome sketch! I'll probably be back with more suggestions... ~ .xoL.
ReplyDeleteWhoops! I forgot to make a comment here, but I chose a name for my new strawberry witch! Thank you to everyone who suggested a name. It is always so difficult to pick as they are all so beautiful and fit the piece so well!
ReplyDeleteI decided to go with Sydney suggested by Heather Savino! I just think it fit the piece perfectly. Thanks so much Heather! I will definitely have more contests in the future, so make sure to be on the lookout for them. =)
