My Sketchquest Entry: The Goose Chase

I tried to chase a memory I couldn’t quite pin down you know how IG works sometimes it gets weird. It is a post I saw once, then lost mid scroll that happens a lot to me. What stuck was this: a girl wearing a bird for a crown, an orange corset hugging her waist, and the sense of being mid leap, halfway between running away and or maybe even flying. So I drew her as she came back to my memory: startled, reaching out, and BAM.

I think in a sense searching for things like that on your feed is just like a weird wild goose chase don't you think? and hence the title of my art today. This is also going to be my entry to the sketchquest contest for September.

Here I show you some snapshots while I was making this drawing:
I am trying to capture her motion and angles based from memory. There is nothing really on her hand but it should be up and I thought some flowers would fill the void. Initially there is a small hand bag but later on that became a small backpack

Here I am figuring out what autumn colors would fit her look. I added some curly golden hair sticking out of her goose head piece and I think that worked.

The last part is the background I chose a brownish background then added the shadow as a final touch

Thank you for reading hope you like my entry to the sketchquest drawing contest
