Fortune Teller

9.5x7 mixed media in Ecosystem sketchbook done over this past weekend for another drawing event on WetCanvas; photo courtesy Li Newton.  To me, this Tainos woman looked as if she'd like to rob someone or cast a spell.  Or maybe she was just tired of tourists.  The double ring in her nose was heavy and pulled it down.  I used Micron 01 pen to sketch, then watercolor, colored markers, white gouache, and white oil pastels.
