This weeks theme for Illustration Friday is 'Twirl' . We recently watched the full season of 'Life on Mars'. They continually refer to a girl as a 'twist' or a 'twirl'. I'm sure that I might have known it was used as slang in the 70's, but it wasn't a more common slang term that I was familiar with. They used it multiple times, so many times that all I could think of when I read 'twirl' was 'girl'. She actually started out with brown hair, but the piece was turning out so light I wanted her hair light as well so I redid it last minute.
Digital painting with photo collage, done with wacom tablet and Photoshop CS4. Any model credits can be found on my DA account.

Hi! I like your style! This piece kinda has a Tim Burton, Alice in Wonderland feel; big eyes, big head, much cuter than that nasty Queen of Hearts. I loved Life on Mars! I had no idea it was originally a BBC production(i looked it up)
Have a great day!
This is great! 'Twist and Twirl' is cockney rhyming slang for 'girl'...
