Queen for a day

This one is just a quick paper doll sketch. I am trying to work out a little more illustrated, storybook style for some of the paper dolls. Many of the pieces I have been doing are very classic, traditional looking paper dolls. Now I want to make them a little different, perhaps a little more odd rather than just pretty.

A dress for a queen

11"x14"

Watercolor and ink on paper

I was a queen, and you took away my crown; a wife, and you killed my husband; a mother, and you deprived me of my children. My blood alone remains: take it, but do not make me suffer long.
Marie Antoinette

This is a little watercolor and ink paper doll inspired by that notorious queen of France. She may have been frivolous, but her clothes were amazing!
