Winter Stroll

This piece introduces you to a Christmassy character that I have created, because we all know that one person who's forever obsessed with Christmas! This is Chrissie Mason.


Evangeline and Chrissie are taking a stroll out in the Jansterwick countryside. The two girls are having a chat. Their spirits are not dampened by the cold weather or the risk of skidding on ice as their conversation renders them lost in a world of their own.

I used Spectrum Noir markers here, particularly because the background was going to be made up of blocks of colour and there happened to be a perfectly wintery looking selection of colours for a background. It stops the background from looking empty but doesn't allow it to steal from the characters whose colours are much bolder.

Normally I don't think a piece like this would qualify for a Christmassy artwork but I think the introduction of Chrissie Marie makes up for that, you certainly get a festive vibe from her! Come back in a few days to see her alongside more characters in another Christmassy artwork.
