Black Lodge - The beginning

I finally started. This is quite a big work, at least for me, so it'll take some time to get it done. Well, my deadline is four weeks on this, so I have to get it done quite soon.

 Here's a pencil sketch

Listening to Twin Peaks soundtrack (movie and tv-series) helps to keep the inspiration up and going. It's the best inspirational music! Little bit of scary, but lovely at the same time, incredible. I should listen it more often, then I'd never lose my inspiration. My favorite songs are into the night and the voice of love.

I'm almost out of black and red is gone. I can get more on friday, because tomorrow is Finland's independence day and all the shops are closed. I'll probably draw with pencil tomorrow, maybe use some ink.
I'm making a family tree-painting for my mother-in-laws mother, she really likes that kind of stuff so..

I'm also sick and the day after tomorrow is my birthday! Now I'll drink tea and hope that I will survive this. Wish me luck!
