She's the World

I'm not sure why, but every time I look at this one, I think of the globe. I think it's the yellow splotches, which seem like islands to me in the sea of blue/turquoise. I like starting out with the gray paint to get the basic shapes done and then going back in with black and other colors to re-define things. There's something about the gray that sort of softens things. This one is acrylic (including most of the doodles on her face), gel pen and distress ink.
