Beauty & Youth

This is a makeup drawing since I forgot to draw last night, which is odd since I didn't actually have anything to do except watch videos. So in an effort to make something quick, I pulled an interesting photo from one of the Japanese sites I often shop, and the product shot for apair of pants by the Japanese brand Beauty & Youth, hence the title. I was all prepared to do a really throwaway drawing, and using the sable brush in Painter, I didn't care how this turned out at all, which resulted in a very confident line. I really, really like the line quality and how fluid this sketch looks. Plus it was SUCH a quick drawing, I barely erased any lines (maybe twice, if that). Spontaneity can be a beautiful thing.
