BARTENDER LUCIA! 1

This one I'm actually not toooooo happy with. I played around a lot with the composition, and if you see the files in the ZIP folder (included in the members version), you'll see there was an entirely different sketch done. That was actually the original thumbnail I had drawn out, then redid. When I had both of these versions, I sent them to some friends and everyone chose what I ended up going with, since you got to see more of Lucia. However, looking back on it, I wish I would have gone with my gut and done the more zoomed in composition.

I'm not sure if that would have made it better or not, but at least then I would have felt like I followed my instincts. If you follow the advice of others and it doesn't work out the way you want, it leaves you feeling like it was someone else's fault. This is why typically, my rule is if I receive feedback or critic on a piece of art, I won't apply it to that piece, but instead I'll use that knowledge in future works.

Either way, it didn't turn out bad at all, and I hope you enjoy it!
