‘No one thought I was a witch
When I was young or
Had some money
When my skin was clear
And I lived in Muggleswick with mummy
They gossiped about my second husband
And the invites soon dried up then’

‘Elizabeth Lee Was Not a Witch’
Durham, Come Save Me
Faithful Johannes @fjwords
Out 3rd July

More development of Elizabeth Lee’s character design. The ‘Eye of God’ stained glass window/pendant is being refined to look more like it belongs around her neck. I also added a bit of colour to the pendant, just to get a feel of how it might fit in the design.

The second sketch didn’t turn out as I planned at all. Even though I still kinda like it, I think I was thinking about witches too much. The model was really pretty but I think I may have subconsciously tried to make her look more like a witch, which wasn’t my intention at all.

I did want subtle cues that the locals could disingenuously use to claim she was a witch but overall, I wanted her to look like a normal, bonnie north east lass, which I think I’m closer to in the first sketch.
