I’ve mentioned before that some of the characters from Something to Blog About have been around with me since I was fifteen. I used to write stories featuring them over and over again.
Today, I decided to dig through boxes in my closet in search of some old stories I had written to see if they could be revised and possibly published some day. While I was looking, I came across my old character sheets and notes. And one thing I used to do back then was draw pictures of my characters.
So, I give you drawings of Libby Fawcett and Keisha Jones, who would later appear in Something to Blog About, as drawn by my fifteen-year-old self.
Libby does have a nose, it’s just a little hard to see. Libby’s hair and eye color changed between this picture and the published Something to Blog About. And I guess Libby was wearing overalls? It was 1995 when I drew this.
Keisha still looks the same though!
Hope you enjoyed this little peek into the art from my past!
